This paper introduces an effective and convenient method for utilizing onboard memory space to process remote commands, telemetry, and interplanetary network protocol data in satellite onboard systems. By enhancing the doubly linked list data structure to store and make accessible variable-length communication protocol data either sequentially or at variable locations, the paper enhances memory capacity utilization. The concept of 'grape' is introduced into the doubly linked list data structure to manage variable-length data and its access, with performance verification conducted through its reference implementation. This novel approach to linked lists is termed 'grape.'
