The material in this document forms the Requirements Definition Report for development of the Variable Dynamic Testbed Vehicle (VDTV). This effort is in support of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) VDTV Implementation Task. We are designing, developing, fabricating, integrating, testing, and delivering a VDTV in compliance with the requirements set forth by JPL. To produce the Requirements Definition Report, we have performed the following task items: conducted trade studies based on JPL requirements to validate the proposed approach for the base vehicle; conducted a comprehensive dynamics analysis of the selected design concept to confirm the expected performance capability range; addressed the cost, schedule, and technical feasibility of providing backup to the dynamic subsystems to provide fail-safe operation in the case of a malfunction of a safety-critical component; conducted analyses to evaluate JPLs requirements that pertain to the dynamic characterization of the VDTV; defined interface requirements for all elements of the delivered system, and defmed system test requirements. |
