In this paper, we describe a PCM encoder structure that can update the telemetry system parameters in real time. In the PCM encoder, an analog signal control unit for FPGA, flash memory, and sensor data acquisition was constructed. UART communication, analog signal control, flash memory control, and frame generation are possible through logic inside FPGA of PCM encoder. UART communication allows the PC to transmit parameter data to the PCM encoder, and flash memory is controlled to update the parameter of the telemetry system in real time and finally the frame is formed. Simulation and verification were performed to confirm whether the parameter data is updated in real time, and the proposed structure was used to construct a telemetry system with enhanced flexibility and convenience.

In this paper, we proposes real-time operating system based PCM encoder for telemetry system that must transmit frames within a set time. In the case of large aircraft, the complexity of the system is increasing because a lot of state information is measured from each sensor and peripheral device. In addition, as the amount measurement data increases, the role of PCM encoder to transmit frames within a set time is becoming important. Existing encoder is inflexible when changing specifications or implementing additional features. Therefore, a design is needed to supplement this. We propose a PCM encoder design applying uC/OS-II. In order to confirm the validity, a simulation was performed to measure the execution time of the task to confirm the performance.

Telemetry system is a system that transmits status information data acquired from the aircraft to the ground station. PCM encoder needs memory to store channel information in order to generate a frame format using the acquired data. Generally, telemetry systems in large aircraft require much larger memory for the increased acquisition channel information due to the increased sensors and subsystems. However, they have difficulty to store all channel information in limited memory. In this paper, we suggests and implements an advanced PCM encoder that can efficiently manage memory by minimizing duplicated channel information. This novel PCM encoder allocates duplicated channel information to memory only once. And, sub commutation channels having different information for each minor frame are allocated to the memory by multiples of sub commutation channels. Finally, the suggested PCM encoder was proved by simulation that composed channels of various measurement cycles.

This paper presents and implements a simple programmable PCM encoder structure uisng the commutation method. In the telemetry system, information is required to assign each data to the channel in order to generate a frame format the data acpuired from the sensor. In this case, when the number of state information is large or the data type is various, there is a necessity to input a large amount of information to each channel. However, the more the number of channels and data, the more probability the error will occur. Therefore, in this paper, the channel information is created using the program. And PCM encoder was implemented to store channel information in ROM. The proposed PCM encoder architecture reduces the likelihood of errors. And it can improve the development speed. The validity of proposed structure is proved by simulation.

There are three critical considerations in developing a PCM telemetry encoder to be installed in an artillery projectile. The first is the performance consideration, such as sampling rate and data transmission rate. The second is the size consideration due to the severely limited installation space in an artillery projectile and the last is the power consumption consideration due to limitations of the munition's power supply. To meet these three considerations, the best alternative is a one-chip solution. Using a commercially available TMS320F2812 DSP, we have implemented a 30-channel PCM telemetry encoder to process randomized data frames, composed of 16-channel analog data, 14-channel digital data and 2-frame synchronization channels per data frame at 10Mbps transmitting baud rate.

This paper proposes a telemetering method that transmits the real-time data together with the time-delayed data and that merges both data after flight test. The method can minimize the error data which occur in the communication environment affected by the multipath fading and transmit antenna pattern when telemetry data are received during the flight test. This method was applied to the design of the telemetry unit and the development of data merging program. By merging the resulting data of flight test and analyzing synchronization errors, its efficiency for the telemetry link is verified.
