International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 27-30, 1997 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / This student paper was produced as part of the team design competition in the University
of Arizona course ECE 485, Radiowaves, and Telemetry. It describes the design of a
telemetry support package for interplanetary exploration.
Control and processing of telemetric signals between an earth based control station, an
exploratory orbiter and probe pods are the focus of this design. Using this design data
retrieval is achieved at a highly reliable rate of 1 error in 10^-10 bits. The exploratory orbiter,
carrying a payload of probes, is launched and proceeds along its predetermined trajectory.
Commands from the earth-based control station is used to send the orbiter to planetary
destinations. The craft then establishes a stable non-geosynchronous orbit. Several probe
pods are launched towards the planet at predetermined locations. These probe pods collect
and send data, as well as system monitoring information to the orbiting craft. The orbiting
craft then retrieves the signals generated by all pods and relays that information to an
earth-based control station.
