The ground station network (GSN) plays a major role in space missions. It establishes links with the spacecraft and with other control centers, supports specific characteristics of the spacecraft and provides the functionality and safety of the mission. By its nature, GSN participates in cross-support activities between different organizations and agencies. The GSN comprises several functional aspects, the communication path between the control center and the ground stations (online data transport, offline data, voice), the management of the stations and their antennas as well as coordination tasks and station scheduling.
