A Flexible Format Adaptive Telemetry Encoder

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / September 15-17, 1969 / Sheraton Park Hotel, Washington, D.C.The Communications Satellite Corporation is developing the systems design and implementation techniques for a flexible format adaptive telemetry encoder. The encoder design includes wired program options to tailor system capability to mission requirements. on-board data source controlled interrupt of the normal telemetry format for transmission of preprocessed or block accumulated information automatically adapts the telemetry channel to variable data rate sources. Ground command control format modifications provide increased data rate or continuous burst readout of selected data inputs. Distributed commutation is also available for the remote collection of analog and digital data. Extensive use is made of monolithic MSI MOS devices and custom hybrid bi-polar logic arrays in the instrumentation of the encoder.International Foundation for TelemeteringProceedings from the International Telemetering Conference are made available by the International Foundation for Telemetering and the University of Arizona Libraries.
