International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 23-26, 2000 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / White Sands Missile Range is supporting Ballistic Missile Defense Organization (BMDO)
target firings from Ft. Wingate, NM. This two Off-Range Corridor allows BMDO to
conduct long range testing within the continental U.S. The Transportable Range
Augmentation and Control System (TRACS), consisting of a control van and one of two
Mobile Telemetry Systems (MTS), provide the necessary on-site telemetry support. The
Dual Remote Interferometer System (DRDAS) that tracks the telemetry RF carrier in
support of Missile Flight Safety (MFS) is also included in this paper. This paper describes
the telemetry support scenario in terms of preliminary simulations followed by real-time
support. Real-time support consists of data distribution from the MTS to the Telemetry
Distribution Center, TRACS Control van, Missile Flight Safety display van, Project
Support vans, on-site data processing, as well as relaying raw data to the main WSMR
Telemetry Data Center (TDC) for real-time analysis. As soon as telemetry data arrives at
the TDC, it is converted into information. This information is used by MFS during real-time
monitoring of vehicle performance. This paper includes the methods used for the
conversion of data into information on-site and at TDC. Real-time data processing
involves multiple independent systems performing their respective tasks on a particular
segment of data.
