The collection and analysis of telemetry data from user’s devices is routinely performed by many software companies. Telemetry collection leads to improved user experience but poses significant risks to users’ privacy. Locally differentially private (LDP) algorithms have recently emerged as the main tool that allows data collectors to estimate various population statistics, while preserving pri...

This paper addresses the distributed systems implementation techniques used in the development of the EMR O/S90 Open Systems Telemetry System. Specifically, it presents the integration, networked load-balancing, and remote control aspects of the telemetry system which allow it to adapt to differing configurations and availability of resources.

A new approach to mission operations will be flight validated on NASA’s New Millennium Program Deep Space One (DS1) mission scheduled to launch in October of 1998. The beacon monitor technology is an operational concept for reducing deep space mission operations cost and decreasing the loading on ground antennas. The technology is required for upcoming NASA missions to Pluto and Europa. With be...

Telemetry studies on aquatic animals often use external tags to monitor migration patterns and help to inform conservation effort. However, external tags are known to impair swimming energetics dramatically in a variety of species, including the endangered European eel. Due to their high swimming efficiency, anguilliform swimmers are very susceptibility for added drag. Using an integration of s...

The Narrow Field Infrared Adaptive Optics System (NFIRAOS) is the first light Adaptive Optics (AO) system for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT). A critical component of NFIRAOS is the Real-Time Controller (RTC) subsystem which provides real-time wavefront correction by processing wavefront information to compute Deformable Mirror (DM) and Tip/Tilt Stage (TTS) commands. The National Research Coun...

INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of a non-invasive telemetry monitoring system to detect and quantify changes in blood pressure and electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters in response to vehicle, L-NAME or minoxidil administration to freely moving beagle dogs. Data from a non-invasive telemetry monitoring system were compared to data captured from an invasive tele...

Satellite telemetry devices collect valuable information concerning the sites visited by animals, including the location of central places like dens, nests, rookeries, or haul-outs. Existing methods for estimating the location of central places from telemetry data require user-specified thresholds and ignore common nuances like measurement error. We present a fully model-based approach for loca...

BACKGROUND Contemporary implantable heart rhythm devices communicate multiple complex data simultaneously using radiofrequency telemetry. Interference in communication can expose them to the risk of potential corruption, leading to adverse clinical consequences. METHODS & RESULTS We studied the characteristics of interference with uplink (real time intracardiac electrograms, marker channel, a...

In most of the initial applications of digital TV telemetry the video source signal is monochrome (typically RS-170 standard). However color TV is now employed extensively in many of the government test ranges, and it is likely that it will be required to digitally transmit the NTSC color TV signal for security and other reasons. It is also likely that the bit rates which will be employed for t...
