Test Methods for Telemetry Systems and Subsystems. Volume 1. Test Methods for Vehicle Telemetry Systems.

摘要

The Telemetry Group of the Range Commanders Council has prepared this document to foster the compatibility of test methods for telemetry systems and subsystems at the member ranges. These standards do not necessarily define the existing capability of any test range, but constitute a guide for the orderly usage of test methods for telemetry systems and subsystems for both ranges and range users. The ultimate purpose is to ensure efficient interoperability between ranges, and compatibility of range user equipment with the ranges. TA telemetry system measurement begins with the sensing of a measurand by a transducer located either on a test vehicle or at a remote test site. It ends at a data storage/display device located at a receiving test site. Systems interconnected by radio links, direct wiring or electrooptical means, or any combination, are included. To ensure that data is of the highest possible quality, individual components should be tested and calibrated in a suitable laboratory before installing the system. Subsequently, the telemetry system should be subjected to a carefully conducted end-to-end calibration check just before, during, and immediately after the actual test. This document is intended to address general methodologies and techniques, and no attempt has been made to cover all possible cases.
