Abstract :
This article discusses the use of an instrumented satellite wherein measurements made in the vehicle are transmitted to ground recording stations by means of a radio telemetering system. The design requirements of a unique telemetering encoder system are examined in the light of the limitations imposed by the over-all satellite program.
