Abstract
Advancements in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) made during this decade have forever changed the way we look at automating spacecraft subsystems including the electrical power system. This paper will discuss various applications of AI to spacecraft electrical power systems. Such discussion will include an overview of various completed, on-going, and planned knowledge-based system activities. These applications include NICBES (Nickel-Cadmium Battery Expert System which is interfaced with the Hubble Space Telescope electrical power system test bed); the SSES (power system loads scheduler); the three cooperating AI systems in the Space Station Module Power Management and Distribution system test bed; and I-DARE, the intelligent data reduction expert. The progress, as well as the issues raised by, of each of these projects will be addressed.
