ITC/USA 2007 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Third Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 22-25, 2007 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Adding an instrumentation / telemetry system to a test article has historically required an
intrusive installation. Power, wiring, and available space typically present significant challenges.
There has been a long-standing need in the test and training community for a non-intrusive,
flexible and modular instrumentation and telemetry system that can be installed on an aircraft or
other test article without the need for permanent modifications. In addition, as available space in
aircraft weapon bays, small weapons, and unmanned vehicles becomes a premium, the
miniaturization of remote sensors and telemetry units becomes critical.
This paper describes the current status of the Advanced Subminiature Telemetry System
(ASMT) Initial Test Capability Project. It discusses the challenges that have been overcome in
developing a wireless sensor network system for use in an airborne test environment. These
include wireless sensor packaging design, selection of operating frequencies, COTS wireless
devices, batteries, system synchronization and data bandwidth calculations. The paper will also
document the progress to date including preliminary test results.
