Design trades for mission/DSN antenna supportability using TIGRAS

In this paper, we describe the capability and usage of TIGRAS. To illustrate the usage of TIGRAS, a hypothetical mission called Jovian Moon Explorer (JME) was created. We discuss how DSN supportability affects mission and spacecraft design and how a project such as JME can use TIGRAS in an early design phase to design for better DSN coverage for its future operation.
