Radiotelemetry

Abstract

Radiotelemetry, by definition, is the science and technology of automatically measuring and transmitting data by radio from remote sources, as from space vehicles, to receiving stations for recording and analysis. It involves preparing of data generated at remote sources, transmitting data through radio channels, and processing data at the receiving stations. Behind these three tasks, how to convey the information in a reliable and timely manner through a communication link is the most fundamental problem in this field.
