Open-source software architecture UEMKA for controlling smart-nanosatellite target devices

The paper shows that a pressing problem in the development of nanosatellites is the lack of open software for on-board computing devices and “smart” payloads. The development of an open software package for centralized management of target terminal devices of nanosatellites based on microservice architecture is considered. The advantages of using this approach when creating a software package are shown. It is proposed to use a nanosatellite simulation model for operational debugging and testing of the software package. The authors of the work present the structure of the software complex and show the place of the simulation model in it. The work is a detailed review of the UEMKA software package developed by the authors.
