International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 30-November 02, 1989 / Town & Country Hotel & Convention Center, San Diego, California / The Range Commanders Council recently added a chapter to IRIG 106-86 which describes a standard for acquisition of MIL-STD-1553 traffic flow. A system has been developed which monitors bus traffic using the format described in the standard for encoding. In addition to bus data, PCM analog channels can be inserted into the telemetry steam. Due to the high bandwidth of the telemetry stream, real-time ground processing of the 1553 data is difficult. Therefore, a limited number of selective measurements taken from the bus traffic are available at fixed positions in the telemetry format for real-time monitoring of critical parameters. A discussion of hardware, software, encoding, and testing will be presented.
