Possible Solution:

  • Create a counter for packages and increment the count after each package is send, the satellite wont do any actions if the count number received is wrong.
  • The current count will appear in the report status telecommand.
  • There will be a telecommand to reset the counting.
  • Each telemetry received from groundstation will also have the current count.
  • Different groundstation may need to comunicate between to check the current count.
  • The counting should not be linear because it facilitates to break criptography.
