Consolidated Communications for Low-Cost Planetary Missions

As part of reducing the cost of operating Deep Space planetary missions, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has developed and deployed a highly-accurate digital receiver capable of recovering telemetry at rates as high as 26 Msymbols/s. JPL is currently assessing the consolidation of all these functions (receiving, telemetry, ranging, doppler, and open-loop recording) into a single rack that could be remotely controlled...This paper discusses the motivation, details, and benefits of this consolidation.
