TELEMETRY ANALYSIS SYSTEM NETWORKED DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention is, in its various aspects and embodiments, a method and apparatus for use in acquiring telemetry regarding an airborne vehicle. In one aspect, the processing of acquired telemetry data is distributed to the points of acquisition rather than at the host station. In another aspect, various points on the telemetry acquisition system employ a common network interface through which the telemetry acquisition stations communicate acquired telemetry data to the control station. In still another aspect, the invention also includes a TDP/IP protocol for communicating between stations. Still other aspects and embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
