Abstract :
Communication systems play an essential role in all long duration space missions. Because of this essential role, a spacecraft´s communication system must be tested. The Electronic Systems Test Laboratory (ESTL) at the Johnson Space Center provides a facility for verifying the operation of spacecraft communications systems. This paper discusses the ESTL test plans for the Space Station Freedom communications systems
