International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 17-20, 1994 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / During the recent years of small satellite space access missions, the trend has
been towards designing low-cost ground control centers to maintain the space/ground
cost ratio. The use of personal computers (PC) in combination with high speed
transputer modules as embedded parallel processors, provides a relatively affordable,
highly versatile, and reliable desktop workstation upon which satellite telemetry
systems can be built to meet the ever-growing challenge of the space missions today
and of the future.
This paper presents the feasibility of cost effective, high performance ground
systems and a quantitative analysis and study in terms of performance, speedup,
efficiency, and the compatibility of the architecture to commercial off the shelf
(COTS) tools, and finally, introduces an operational high performance, low cost
ground system to strengthen the insight of the concept.
