摘　　要：FSC （Fractionated Spacecraft Cluster） is a kind of loosely distributed space system which is comprised of multiple physically independent spacecrafts orbiting closely and interactively communicating via wireless network. Spaceborne ad-hoc network, as the physical infrastructure for information exchanging, is one of the enabling technologies of FSC. The demonstration of FSC flying supported by ad-hoc network is worth for the sake of proving the rationality of FSC and seeking technological improvements. Considering this, a NNP （Network Node Prototype） for spaceborne ad-hoc network is developed in this paper, which transmits the information required by the FSC cooperation. Four NNPs are then built up and collaborated into a hardware-in-loop simulation system, in which a typical loose satellite cluster flying mission was performed. The simulation results showed that the NNPs can support the inter-satellite communication for satellite cluster flying.
