A set of computer programs was developed which can be used to simulate the operation of NASA's Satellite Tracking and Data Acquisition Network (STADAN). The simulation consists of two major modules, a computerized algorithmic satellite scheduler (CASS) and a generalized evaluation model simulator (GEMS). CASS generates in-view time intervals of satellites over ground stations, and using these candidate passes, produces a schedule of service times for specific satellites to be serviced by specific ground stations in an attempt to fulfill certain inputted service requirements. GEMS than examines how well STADAN fulfills this schedule in terms of the availability and dependability of different (inputted) complements of equipment at the ground stations. The simulation was modified to allow for the introduction of one or more tracking and data relay satellites, which can serve as orbital receiving and command stations.
