ITC/USA 2005 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-First Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 24-27, 2005 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Creating a generic, multi-vendor data exchange system for transmitting telemetry configurations
between various systems is a daunting task. To date many different systems have been proposed
including relational databases (RDBMS), TMATS, and several different XML schemas.
Although many of these systems have been implemented, a complete, flexible solution has not
been developed.
This paper describes an implementation that is currently in use for exporting and importing a
complete telemetry system via XML. Using this system, an engineer can import an entire
telemetry configuration, a partial telemetry configuration, or even just a single measurement
(parameter). As a result, the gap between user database systems and the airborne instrumentation
vendor’s configuration software (IVCS) is seamlessly bridged. This provides many benefits
including: the ability to rapidly change configurations, data entry error avoidance, version
control, the protection of sensitive information, and configuration reusability. This system
allows for the configuration of all aspects of the telemetry setup including data acquisition
hardware, transmitters, ground stations, and recorders. In addition, the recorder settings and the
definition of the data that are to be recorded are coupled and linked to the rest of the telemetry
configuration, which facilitates future data recovery.
