International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 26-29, 1992 / Town and Country Hotel and Convention Center, San Diego, California / Today’s telemetry preprocessing systems are often required to create and process new
telemetry parameters by combining multiple actual parameters in a telemetry data stream.
The newly created parameters are commonly referred to as “derived parameters” and are
often required for analysis in real time at relatively high speeds. Derived parameters are
created through algebraic or logical combinations of multiple parameters distributed
throughout the telemetry data frame. Creation and processing of derived parameters is
frequently performed in telemetry system preprocessors, which are much more efficient at
processing time division multiplex data streams than general purpose processors.
Providing telemetry system users with a “user friendly” method for creating and installing
newly derived parameter functions has been a subject of considerable discussion.
Successful implementation of derived parameter processing has typically required the
telemetry system user to be knowledgeable of the telemetry preprocessor architecture and
to possess software programming skills.
An innovative technique which requires no programming language skills is presented in
this paper. Programmers or non-programmers may use the technique to easily define
derived parameter calculations. Both single derived parameters and multiple derived
parameters may be calculated in the preprocessor at high throughput rates.
