Abstract

The purpose of this document is to describe the technical capabilities of the ground stations that comprise the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Near Earth Network (NEN). This document provides sufficient information to enable project engineers and support personnel to begin interfacing with the NEN. It is not intended to be a technical description of network equipment; rather, it defines NEN capabilities and identifies those parameters of particular interest to the user. For more detailed information, see the documents cited in Section 1.3. NEN capabilities evolve based on user requirements and budget limitations. New projects can be assured of NEN capabilities agreed to in their Radio Frequency Interface Control Document (RFICD).

Project Hermes 'Use of Smartphones for Receiving Telemetry and Commanding a Satellite'

TCPIP protocols can be applied for satellite command, control, and data transfer. Project Hermes was an experiment set-up to test the use of the TCPIP protocol for communicating with a space bound payload. The idea was successfully demonstrated on high altitude balloon flights and on a sub-orbital sounding rocket launched from NASAs Wallops Flight Facility.

What is the Future of Telemetry at Armstrong Flight Research Center?

Armstrong Flight Research Center executes aeronautical research and development for NASA. Telemetry is a key data component used to validate the R&D process and more importantly provide a critical safety element. This presentation will offer information that supports efforts to investigate the Future of Telemetry at a Test Range, specifically AFRC.
