Performance of high rate telemetry stations used in the Deep Space Network is verified. Measurement techniques are discussed.
Telemetry system utilizing miniature, single-channel, crystal-controlled transmitter is described suitable for biomedical applications. Receiver used in conjunction with transmitter is narrowband superheterodyne FM receiver with crystal control in both conversion stages.
Mathematical models of rate gyros, servo accelerometers, pressure transducers, and telemetry systems were derived and their parameters were obtained from laboratory tests. Analog computer simulations were used extensively for verification of the validity for fast and large input signals. An optimal inversion method was derived to reconstruct input signals from noisy output signals and a computer program was prepared.
Coding systems for high data rates were examined from the standpoint of potential application in space-station telemetry links. Approaches considered included convolutional codes with sequential, Viterbi, and cascaded-Viterbi decoding. It was concluded that a high-speed (40 Mbps) sequential decoding system best satisfies the requirements for the assumed growth potential and specified constraints. Trade-off studies leading to this conclusion are viewed, and some sequential (Fano) algorithm improvements are discussed, together with real-time simulation results.
The unique problems encountered in the integrated approach to aircraft and spacecraft avionics system designs are discussed with the emphasis on recent advances in telemetry as a factor facilitating the integration. A listing of subsystems planned for integration on the Space Shuttle vehicle is given, covering auxiliary pumping and propellant, crew controls and displays, computation, communications and radar, electric power, guidance, navigation and control, air-bearing engines, main engines, reaction control, and structural/mechanical elements. Considerations are given for the multiplexed data bus design applicable to integrated avionics.
Portable telemetry system uses conventional telephone link which eliminates mailing or messenger service between physician and analyst. Transmitter is used by physician; receiver is used by analyst. Each unit is inductively coupled to its respective telephone set, transmitter converting EEG into audio frequency and receiver converting this frequency back to EEG.
A two-channel telemetry system is described in which one channel is used for high-rate data and the other channel for low-rate data communication. In the transmitter a signal, which subsequently phase modulates a carrier, is produced which is a function of at least the high-rate data, the low-rate data and the frequency of the subcarrier of the low-rate channel. In the receiver which includes a phase-locked loop, the high-rate data is detected off the receiver inphase channel output and the low-rate off the quadrature channel output.
