Abstract :
A data processing system, designed specifically to accommodate the vehicle instrumentation test requirements of a large environmental space simulation chamber is described. Prominent features of the system include a versatile input section capable of accepting FM/FM, PCM, PAM/PDM telemetry signals, and analog information; a stored program analog sequencer and telemetry decommutator: a data compressor; and an on-line computer. Primary emphasis in system design has been placed on flexibility and versatility. Reasons for this emphasis are presented with views on system utilization.
