摘要：In this book the authors review the state of satellite anomaly reporting and research with a particular focus on the deleterious effects of the natural space environment. The central theme is the need for and difficulty of maintaining a satellite anomaly database. The authors point out that while satellite operators generally acknowledge the benefits of a centralized anomaly database, many are reluctant to readily contribute information to a shared database due to concerns about the inadvertent release of sensitive details regarding the performance and integrity of their respective satellite systems. The main conclusion of the volume is that a secure anomaly database that safeguards the identity of the contributor by taking advantage of modern cryptographic approaches could potentially alleviate proprietary concerns and lead to overall improved satellite operations.
