After launch, the following scenario will be developed : the ATV [Automated Transfer Vehicle] separates from the launcher and attains a circular orbit. After 46 hours of phasing, the rendez-vous with the ISS [International Space Station] will be prepared. Docking will take place on the side of the Russian service module. After a period of six months, the ATV will separate from the ISS and disintegrate if it reaches again the Earth's atmosphere. The operators of the... site in Les Mureaux will organize the actual simulation of the docking procedure by running the optical rendez-vous sensor(RVS) in real time with the other sub-components within the space system.  2, fiche 2, Anglais, - rendez%2Dvous%20sensor

We present the modification of two ESA [European Space Agency] ground stations carried out in order to support the in-flight RF [Radio Frequency] validation of the Proximity Communication Equipment(PCE), part of the International Space Station(ISS). This subsystem plays a critical role during the docking of the Automated Transfer Vehicle(ATV), and has to be tested prior to each ATV launch, to ensure that the RF performance is as expected. For the check-out, an unmodulated signal is transmitted by the PCE during an ISS pass, and received by the two ground stations. Based on the strength of the received signal, the radiation characteristic of the complete PCE can be assessed, and compared with the nominal performance. The measurement process requires calibrating the receiving subsystem, including antenna, front-end and back-end equipment. The adopted calibration procedure, only relying on radio stars measurement, does not require the use of a calibrated source external to the ground station.  3, fiche 4, Anglais, - proximity%20communication%20equipment

Le système de communications PCE (Proximity Communication Equipment) a été développé et intégré à Toulouse par EADS [European Aeronautic Defence Space] Astrium, dans le cadre du programme ATV [véhicule de transfert automatique] de l'Agence Spatiale Européenne, sous responsabilité d'EADS SPACE Transportation qui est le maître d'œuvre du développement et de la construction du segment spatial de l'ATV. Le PCE est destiné à assurer les communications de proximité pour les 30 derniers kilomètres de vol du futur véhicule cargo européen ATV à son approche de la Station spatiale internationale (ISS). [...] Le PCE est un sous-ensemble intégré. Il est constitué de deux chaînes de communications en bande S, entièrement redondantes. Il comprend deux transpondeurs à spectre étalé, deux équipements de gestion de protocoles CCSDS [Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems] et des équipements radio fréquence. Le PCE sera installé dans le module Zvezda de l'ISS et sera opérationnel durant la phase dite «de proximité» correspondant aux 30 derniers kilomètres du vol ATV et à l'exercice délicat de son arrimage à la Station. Ce rendez-vous orbital automatique représentera une première européenne. Parmi l'ensemble des données de commande et de contrôle qu'il transmettra dans le cadre de sa mission de communications, le PCE fournira à l'ATV les informations de position GPS [système mondial de localization] nécessaires à la navigation relative vers la Station spatiale internationale (ISS). À une distance de 500 m et jusqu'à l'arrimage, la navigation se poursuivra à l'aide d'instruments laser, d'abord avec un télégoniomètre puis avec un vidéomètre pour les phases finales.  3, fiche 4, Français, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20communication%20PCE

Once it has reached the correct orientation for rendezvous with the already-orbiting International Space Station comprised of the Russian Zarya control module and the US Unity module, Zvezda becomes the passive vehicle in the final approach and docking operations. As the passive target vehicle, Zvezda will maintain a station-keeping orbit as the active Zarya control module performs the rendezvous and docking under ground control using the Russian automated rendezvous and docking system(Kurs).  2, fiche 5, Anglais, - passive%20target%20vehicle

... The Progress supply vehicle to the ISS [International Space Station] is an automated version of the Soyuz, and was developed to carry propellant and cargo to the Salyut and Mir space station. It will serve the same purpose for the ISS. Although the ISS has its own propulsion system, generally it is the Progress vehicle that will perform periodic reboost maneuvers to maintain the ISS orbital altitude. The Progress is approximately the same size as the Soyuz, but it has a slightly higher mass at launch of approximately 7150 kg. The Progress spacecraft docks automatically to the ISS, and the TORU [Teleoperated Control System-Manual Docking System on Zarya] system acts as a backup remote control docking system. Progress is composed of three modules : the Cargo Module, the Refueling Module, and the Instrument/Propulsion Module. A modified version of the Progress M, called the Progress M1, is planned for operation with the ISS. This version will have more propellant tanks for refueling, as the entire Refueling Module is devoted to fuel. Water will be carried in the Cargo Module. The Progress payload includes cargo in the pressurized Cargo Module and propellant in the Refueling Module. Excess propellant that is usually in the propulsion system tanks in the Instrumentation/Propulsion Module can also be used by the ISS.  10, fiche 6, Anglais, - Progress%20supply%20vehicle

TORU(teleoperator control system) is a manual mode system through which a crewmember, located in the Service Module, performs necessary guidance functions in the event of a failure of the automated Kurs rendezvous/docking system of a Progress cargo vehicle(TGK). In this case, the ship's motion will be manually controlled from the TORU control panel, using two hand controllers and a situational display of television signals(ISS) [International Space Station] image plus range, velocity, and relative angular position data from a Progress-mounted Klest-M video camera, shown on two monitors(VKU and Simvol-Ts).  8, fiche 7, Anglais, - TORU%20docking%20system

The ISS [International Space Station] flies in an attitude that is referenced to the orbital plane of ISS using a set of local vertical/local-horizontal axes. The origin is at the ISS centre of mass, with the x-axis pointing along the direction of the orbital velocity vector(sometimes referred to as the "ram" direction). The z-axis points directly towards the Earth, and the y-axis parallel to the truss assembly... This orientation is referred to as "x-axis toward the velocity vector" Torque Equilibrium Attitude and is the "normal" orientation of the ISS. The overall ISS design is optimised to fly in this attitude, which places the most laboratory modules in the "best" microgravity volume, supports attitude reboosts, service vehicle docking and minimises aerodynamic drag.  3, fiche 8, Anglais, - local%20vertical%20local%20horizontal
