Reconfigurable on-board computer of redundancy arbitration mechanism

Abstract

The invention relates to a reconfigurable on-board computer of a redundancy arbitration mechanism. The reconfigurable on-board computer consists of a main processing unit, a backup processing unit, an arbitration module and a power supply management module, wherein by adopting a double-computer cold backup mode and based on a Power PC processor and a software configurable interface, the main processing unit and the backup processing unit can realize software configuration of the on-board computer through satellite-to-ground links. Algorithms of failure detection, self-check and double-computer switching arbitration of the on-board computer are stored in the arbitration module; the arbitration module consists of two sets of FPGA, which detect failures of the main processing unit and the backup processing unit, performs internal self-check in real time respectively, form failure judgment on the main processing unit and the backup processing unit and the redundancy arbitration of the double-computer switching, and finally report the arbitration results such as restoration, switching and the like to the power supply management module in an instruction format for performing. The reconfigurable on-board computer performs cold backup design on the main processing unit and the backup processing unit, and performs failure detection and double-computer switching by using the arbitration module, so that the reconfigurable on-board computer has the advantages of high processing capacity, flexible function, high reliability, low energy consumption, and the computer has important value in the development of electronic systems of micro/nano satellites.

Problems solved by technology

The traditional space-borne computer has weak processing ability and a single task. As the satellite processing core, in order to ensure its reliable operation, a simple multi-computer hot backup configuration is usually adopted, and the cost and power consumption are difficult to control. At the same time, the satellite software is relatively fixed and has simple functions. , and does not have functions such as online upgrade

In the face of many technical deficiencies, in recent years, domestic and foreign researches on the high performance, high reliability, low power consumption, small size technology of spaceborne computer hardware and software reconfigurable and upgradeable technology are bei...
