Description
Summary:International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 08-11, 1968 / Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles, California Complex sounding rocket payloads require on-board data processing and channel capacity which frequently exceed the capability of the standard FM-FM-telemetry system. To obtain the full benefit of the accuracy and information density of sounding rocket experiments a PCM-telemetry system has been developed which provides sufficient flexibility in the choice of channel number, bit rate, time resolution, and accuracy. A first version with Bo channels for scientific data, and 62 channels for technical data will be flown on board of five Black Brants from the Esrange in Kiruna. International Foundation for Telemetering Proceedings from the International Telemetering Conference are made available by the International Foundation for Telemetering and the University of Arizona Libraries.
