Dept. of Electrical & Electronic Engineering. Artificial satellites Aerospace telemetry Telemeter Dissertations -- Electronic engineering Thesis (M. Ing.) -- University of Stellenbosch, 1994. SUNSAT will require a reliable telematry system which will enable the Ground Control Station to establish the status of the satellite under all operational conditions. Flexibility is required to adapt the telemetry system to the different needs and situations which may arise during the satellite's mission. Existing microsatellite telemetry systems were evaluated and a conceptual design was developed from the evaluation. A prototype model was developed and from the experienced gained, another conceptual design was developed. This led to the design and implementation of an engineering model of the hardware. The result is a telemetry system which was developed with reliability and flexibility as the two main design guidelines. Some of the main features of the engineering model is the decentralized implementation and the use of multiple on board processors which can collect the telemetry data. The system implements a hardware based telemetry function which is not dependant on any of the on board processors to transmit the telemetry data.
