This paper aims to add the information access capabilities to enable user’s mobile terminals in a wireless small satellite telemetry system. The cellular phone-centric mobile network architecture provides wireless communication link; telemetry information is provided to users in a highly personalized form according to the end-user’s range. We choose a reference system-level model of network arc...

The airborne telemetry environment presents unique challenges to end-to-end communications due to the highly dynamic topology and time-varying connectivity of high-velocity wireless nodes. The AeroTP transport protocol uses multiple reliability modes to trade off end-to-end reliability and efficiency as appropriate for different categories of telemetry data. Based on the architecture previously...

Over the past half century, wildlife research has relied on technological advances to gain additional insight into the secretive lives of animals. This revolution started in the 1960s with the development of radio telemetry and continues today with the use of Global Positioning System (GPS)-based research techniques. In the present paper we review the history of radio telemetry from its origins...

The use of radio telemetry in wader studies has grown exponentially in the past decade, and more than 40 species from four different families have been radio-marked. We summarize these studies and find that nearly all of them have used Very High Frequency radio transmitters to study individuals for periods from a few days to a few months. In the past five years, there has been tremendous growth...

Development of advanced anomaly detection and failure diagnosis technologies for spacecraft is a quite significant issue in the space industry, because the space environment is harsh, distant and uncertain. While several modern approaches based on qualitative reasoning, expert systems, and probabilistic reasoning have been developed recently for this purpose, any of them has a common difficulty...

A bi-directional and multi-channel wireless telemetry capsule, 11mm in diameter, is presented that can transmit video images from inside the human body and receive a control signal from an external control unit. The proposed telemetry capsule includes transmitting and receiving antennas, a demodulator, decoder, four LEDs, and CMOS image sensor, along with their driving circuits. The receiver de...

Radio telemetry equipment has significantly improved over the last 10-15 years and is increasingly being used in research for monitoring a variety of physiological parameters in non-sedated animals. The aim of this review is to provide an update on the current state of development of radio telemetry for recording respiration. Our literature review found only rare reports of respiratory studies ...

The Communications Interface Board (CIB) is an improved communications architecture that was demonstrated on the International Space Station (ISS). ISS communication interfaces allowing for real-time telemetry and health monitoring require a significant amount of development. The CIB simplifies the communications interface to the ISS for real-time health monitoring, telemetry, and control of re...
