NASA Docking System (NDS) Interface Definitions Document (IDD)

[摘要] The NASA Docking System (NDS) mating system supports low approach velocity docking and provides a modular and reconfigurable standard interface, supporting crewed and autonomous vehicles during mating and assembly operations. The NDS is NASA s implementation for the International Docking System Standard (IDSS) using low impact docking technology. All NDS configurations can mate with the configuration specified in the IDSS Interface Definition Document (IDD), Revision A, released May 13, 2011. The NDS evolved from the Low Impact Docking System (LIDS). The term (and its associated acronym), international Low Impact Docking System (iLIDS) is also used to describe this system. NDS and iLIDS may be used interchangeability. Some of the heritage documentation and implementations (e.g., software command names) used on the NDS will continue to use the LIDS acronym.
