Overview: This white paper discusses the properties of communication architecture used in Space exploration that will use humans and robots in partnership and leverage the capabilities of each where most appropriate and useful. The paper provides main recommendations as the communication infrastructure that should consider end-to-end system-wide characteristics of sensing and actuation, constraints of power and computing resources, and interoperability. Moreover, it emphasizes that the network platform must be evaluated early and continuously to ensure system efficiency and reliability. Such a communication network would enable flexible, sustainable, and affordable human-robotic space exploration.
