DATA QUALITY ASSURANCE IN A SHIPBOARD COMPUTERCONTROLLED TELEMETRY SYSTEM

Abstract

This paper describes a computer-controlled telemetry system used as a shipboard telemetry station for U. S. Navy Poseidon FBM weapon system testing. Built into the equipment are rather sophisticated automatic tests. These tests allow expected. equipment performance to be verified under conditions very nearly like those to be encountered during the data receiving mission. Also built into the equipment are provisions for real-time display and quick-look playback capability. These provisions allow evaluation and analysis of the test results within a few hours of the operation.
