摘要

This paper details a specific and unexpected problem faced by the Entry, Descent, and Landing team on the Phoenix Mars Mission that demonstrates two problems in mission architecture: 1) the difficulties inherent in adapting commercial-off-the-shelf technology to a system different from the product's intended scope; and 2) the design of test environments sufficiently flightlike as to reveal systemic problems in new architectures. Specifically, the interaction of the entry heat shield with the landing radar could not be tested in a flightlike manner; hence, detailed simulation of the landing radar was conducted with the expectation that the radar could lock on echoes from the heat shield and report an erroneous altitude, and that phenomenon could be handled with appropriate flight software. Surprisingly, it was discovered that the heat shield spoofed the radar's internal logic that was designed to prevent locking on ambiguous radar returns. Mitigating the unexpected problem proved to be much more challenging than the anticipated heatshield lock scenario, ultimately requiring last-minute changes to both the radar firmware and the flight software.
