Description: 

The Data Compression as a Service (DCaaS) study aims to bring the benefits of data compression to the experimenters on ESA's OPS-SAT platform. It focuses on using the POCKET+ algorithm for the compression of housekeeping telemetry data. The project contains a space component, which performs the compression of provided user data, and a ground component, for the decompression of transmitted user data. Three use cases were selected within the scope of the project: file-to-file, packet-to-packet, and stream-to-stream lossless data transfers.
