A COMPACT, LIGHTWEIGHT, LOW POWER, MULTI-FUNCTION TELEMETRY RECEIVER/COMBINER SYSTEM PROVIDES "HANDS OFF" AUTOMATION FOR SYSTEMS COST REDUCTION

Abstract

With the increased concerns for reducing cost and improving reliability in today's telemetry systems, many users are employing simulation and automation to guarantee reliable telemetry systems operation. This places an increased demand on the remote capabilities of the equipment used in the telemetry system. Furthermore, emphasis has been placed on the ability to decrease the space and power consumption of the telemetry system to facilitate transportability of the a single telemetry system to multiple sites. Finally, today's telemetry systems demand that all equipment provide multiple functions to provide the maximum performance for the lowest system cost.
