Importance sampling simulation of free-space optical APD pulse position modulation receiversBaker, Kenneth R. 06 June 2008 (has links)
Free-space optical communication technology has many advantages over RF/microwave in satellite and other spacecraft applications where reductions in size, weight and prime power requirements are combined with increased data transfer capability over long distances. Ultimately, the design and implementation of free-space optical communication systems is dependent on suitable analysis of the link. The analysis of these systems is difficult due to the complicated time-varying propagation of optical energy over the free-space channel. This difficulty is combined with a shortage of suitable analytical expressions for adequately determining the performance of free-space optical receivers. As the link must be modeled and analyzed, simulation of the free-space optical communication link can initiate the process of exploring the application of lightwave technology to the free-space channel. A prohibitive amount of time is required to simulate receiver bit error rate (BER) performance at the low error rates of interest. This dissertation presents the results achieved in reducing the amount of time required to simulate, to a given accuracy, the bit error rate performance of an APD based free-space optical receiver.
An improved technique for the importance sampling simulation of direct detection APD receivers has been developed. Two methods for efficiently simulating and biasing the probability distribution function of the APD process are presented and discussed. This is the first use the Webb, McIntyre, Conradi statistics in importance sampling simulation of an APD. The general procedure for applying importance sampling to the optical communication system simulation problem is presented in detail. The technique of importance sampling has been extended to include the simulation of maximum likelihood optical M-ary PPM receivers, an optical receiver relevant to free-space applications. The use of importance sampling is shown to reduce the time required to simulate M-PPM APD receivers by several orders of magnitude, from 9000 years to less than one hour in one example. / Ph. D.

“CAIS GROUND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT USING A LOW COST, PC-BASED PLATFORM”Knoebel, Robert, Berdugo, Albert 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 28-31, 1996 / Town and Country Hotel and Convention Center, San Diego, California / The Common Airborne Instrumentation System (CAIS) was developed under the auspices
of the Department of Defense to promote standardization, commonality, and
interoperability among flight test instrumentation. The central characteristic of CAIS is a
common suite of equipment used across service boundaries and in many airframe and
weapon systems.
The CAIS system has many advanced capabilities which must be tested during ground
support and system test. There is a need for a common set of low cost, highly capable
ground support hardware and software tools to facilitate these tasks.
The ground support system should combine commonly available PC-based telemetry tools
with unique devices needed for CAIS applications (such as CAIS Bus Emulator, CAIS
Hardware Simulator, etc.). An integrated software suite is imperative to support this
equipment.
A CAIS Ground Support Unit (GSU) has been developed to promote these CAIS goals.
This paper presents the capabilities and features of a PC-based CAIS GSU, emphasizing
those features that are unique to CAIS. Hardware tools developed to provide CAIS Bus
Emulation and CAIS Hardware Simulation are also described.

PCM Backfill: Providing PCM to the Control Room Without DropoutsMorgan, Jon, Jones, Charles H. 10 1900 (has links)
ITC/USA 2014 Conference Proceedings / The Fiftieth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 20-23, 2014 / Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, San Diego, CA / One of the initial control room capabilities to be demonstrated by iNET program is the ability to provide data displays in the control room that do not contain data dropouts. This concept is called PCM Backfill where PCM data is both transmitted via traditional SST and recorded onboard via an iNET compatible recorder. When data dropouts occur, data requests are made over the telemetry network to the recorder for the missing portions of the PCM data stream. The retrieved data is sent over the telemetry network to the backfill application and ultimately delivered to a pristine data display. The integration of traditional SST and the PCM Backfill capability provides both real-time safety of flight data side-by-side with pristine data suitable for advanced analysis.

Differential pulse code modulation data compressionLum, Randall M. G. 01 January 1989 (has links) (PDF)
With the requirement to store and transmit information efficiently, an ever increasing number of uses of data compression techniques have been generated in diverse fields such as television, surveillance, remote sensing, medical processing, office automation, and robotics. Rapid increases in processing capabilities and the speed of complex integrated circuits make data compression techniques a prime candidate for application in the areas mentioned above. This report addresses, from a theoretical viewpoint, three major data compression techniques, Pixel Coding, Predictive Coding, and Transform Coding. It begins with a project description and continues with data compression techniques, focusing on Differential Pulse Code Modulation.

Impulzové modulace / Pulse modulationsŠiška, Martin January 2013 (has links)
This work deals with the analysis of pulse modulation issues, work is divided into six chapters. The first chapter of the thesis deals with pulse modulations as a whole. It explains the concept of modulation, the distinction between analog and digital modulation, and there is the basic classification of pulse modulation done. The second chapter focuses on the issue of non-quantized pulse modulation. For each modulation belonging to this group is verbally and graphically explains the principle of its activities. In the third chapter, which is similar to the second chapter, the work focuses on quantized pulse modulation. Again, each of these modulations explained its basic principle. It is also in this chapter outlines the design models in Matlab-Simulink. The fourth chapter presents calculations and tables with calculated values needed for simulations. In the fifth chapter, a comparison waveforms. It contains a discussion about the dependence of modulation on their parameters, parameters of the input signal and the sampling frequency. In the final sixth chapter deals with the early design concepts and detailed diagrams for the production of demonstration products.

DIGITAL VOICE DECODING IN TODAY'S TELEMETRY SYSTEMKnudtson, Kevin M., Glass, Randy 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 25-28, 1999 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Today’s telemetry systems can reduce spectrum demand and maintain secure voice
by encoding analog voice into digital data using; Continuously Variable Slope Delta
Modulation ( CVSD ) format and imbedding it into a telemetry stream. The model CSC-0390 DvD system is an excellent choice in decoding digital voice, designed with
flexibility, efficiency, and simplicity in mind. Flexibility in design brings forth a
capability of operating on a wide variety of telemetry systems and data formats without
any specialized interfaces. The utilization of 74HC series circuit technology makes this
DvD system efficient in design, low cost, and lower power consumption. In addition the
front panel display and control function is also is an example of Simplicity in design and
operation.

REAL-TIME INTEGRATION OF RADAR INFORMATION, AND GROUND AND RADIOSONDE METEOROLOGY WITH FLIGHT RESEARCH DATABillings, Don, Wei, Mei, Leung, Joseph, Aoyagi, Michio, Shigemoto, Fred, Honeyman, Rob 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 26-29, 1998 / Town & Country Resort Hotel and Convention Center, San Diego, California / Although PCM/TDM framed data is one of the most prevalent formats handled by flight
test ranges, it is often required to acquire and process other types. Examples of such non-standard
data types are radar position information and meteorological data from both
ground based and radiosonde systems. To facilitate the process and management of such
non-standard data types, a micro-processor based system was developed to acquire and
transform them into a standard PCM/TDM data frame. This obviated the expense of
developing additional special software and hardware to handle such non-standard data
types.
