| Summary: | International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 23-26, 2000 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California === With the introduction of digital data recorders new ways of data processing have been developed. The
three most important improvements are discussed in this paper:
A) By processing PCM Data from a digital recorder by using the SCSI-Interface our ground station has
developed software to detect the synchronization pattern of the PCM data and then perform software
frame decommutation. Many advantages will be found with this method.
B) New digital recorders already use the CCSDS Standard as the internal recording format. Once this
technique is implemented in our ground station’s software and becomes part of our software
engineering team’s general know-how, the switch to CCSDS telemetry in the future will require no
quantum leap in effort.
C) Digital recorders offer a very new application: Writing data to a digital tape in the recorder’s own
format, allows the replay of data using the recorder’s interfaces; i.e. writing vibration data from the
host system to tape, using the analog format of the digital recorder, allows the analysis of the data
either in analog form, using the analog interface of the recorder, or in digital form. |
