  Provided support to the GPS group by interfacing with the Certification and Compliance group to provide documents needed for ADP and CDP under a time constrained schedule. Coordinated drawing changes and hardware refurbishment to supply acceptable test hardware for the JAXA antennas. Used NI Labview to debug communication issues with RTDs on GPS antennas. Researched upgrade options for interfacing with RTDs and application software. Performed radiation test for PCMCIA1553 card undergoing flight certification. After analyzing results and concurring with client and software developers, made recommendations to modify protocol chips and memory chips for better performance for an acceptable mean-time-between-failure ratio. Accomplished testing under time constraints and many technical glitches in Indiana with final results being acceptable as expected. Wrote Visual C++ code for testing onboard memory and registry failures during radiation test. Communicated with vendor to resolve hardware and firmware problems. Assisted in creating test plans and coordinating with NASA QE on acceptable requirements for V&V. Testing was completed in an acceptable time. Wrote functional procedures, TPS, DRs, and Acceptance Test Procedure. Coordinated with Quality Assurance personnel during testing and hardware modifications. Worked with Certification and Compliance group preparing ADP, ATP, and CDP. Interfaced with drafters on hardware drawings and redlines. Supported certification of a new docking station to work with the A31p laptop. Assisted in writing and verifying TPS, DRs, disassembly and functional procedures. Analyzed circuitry, voltage, and computer performances. Show less
