Engineering scope
PALLC connects orbital and vehicle dynamics with observer geometry, sensing and command-and-control dependencies. Mission objectives define the observations, coverage, timing and information exchanges that the analysis must address.
Line of sight, radiometric and RF calculations, processing schedules and communication delays shape the modeled information available to each participant. Uncertainty and sensitivity studies help identify which parameters drive differences between alternatives.
ZMS connects physical source states to observations, relay routes and scenario time. Controlled comparisons and replay support architecture trades, test planning and assessment of information delivery across the mission thread.
