Modern telemetry networks require the use of efficient domain-specific protocols at the transport, network, and routing layers. However, the existing end-devices and services are based on legacy protocols such as TCP/IP. This necessitates translation between the legacy and aeronautical protocol. In this paper we propose an efficient translation mechanism with the help of gateways at the telemet...

Wireless medical telemetry permits the measurement of physiological signals at a distance through wireless technologies. One of the latest applications is in the field of implantable and ingestible medical devices (IIMDs) with integrated antennas for wireless radiofrequency (RF) communication (telemetry) with exterior monitoring/control equipment. Implantable medical devices (MDs) perform an ex...

Caterpillar has for many years used telemetry as a key component in the data acquisition and analysis systems used to test and develop heavy equipment. The testing of construction and mining equipment at Caterpillar presents several unique challenges, such as the operating environment of the test machine, the large number of models in the product line, the need to change test machines on a dail...

The Serial Streaming Telemetry infrastructure is being augmented with the Telemetry Network System, which is a net-centric infrastructure requiring bi-directional communications between the test article segment and the ground station segment. As a result, future radio segments must implement transceiver architecture to support bi-directional communications. This paper presents a design methodol...

OBJECTIVE Despite considerable advances in retinal prostheses over the last two decades, the resolution of restored vision has remained severely limited, well below the 20/200 acuity threshold of blindness. Towards drastic improvements in spatial resolution, we present a scalable architecture for retinal prostheses in which each stimulation electrode is directly activated by incident light and ...

Cochlea implant fitting is based on ECAP measurements (electrically evoked sum action potentials). It claimed that profiles differ depending the electrode array and its position as well time of deafening patient age. Retrospectively, Auto NRT (Neutral Response Telemetry) data from 812 patients who had received a cochlea between 11/05 11/21 were evaluated. The intraoperative children adults was ...

In this paper, we investigate high-capacity fiber-optic networks for real-time telemetry applications. The network topologies and related network components are analyzed for telemetry fiber-optic Local Area Network (LAN) and Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) as well as MAN internetworking with LANs. Two types of multiplexing techniques, namely, Wavelength Division Multiplexing and Time Division M...

Abstract Acoustic telemetry is widely used to investigate aquatic animal movement. Pulse position modulation (PPM) an acoustic method that allows multiple unique identification codes be transmitted at a single frequency, typically in the 69 kHz range. However, because potential number of (i.e. tags) ultimately limited by pulses PPM signal, this poses practical limitation. In addition, different...

Microscale optical devices enabled by wireless power harvesting and telemetry facilitate manipulation and testing of localized biological environments (e.g., neural recording and stimulation, targeted delivery to cancer cells). Design of integrated microsystems utilizing optical power harvesting and telemetry will enable complex in vivo applications like actuating a single nerve, without the di...
