Telemetry
The term Telemetry, originates from the Greek words, tele meaning
remote, and metron meaning measure. The modern dictionary states
that it is the science and technology of automatic measurement and
relaying of data by wire, radio, or other means from remote sources,
as from space vehicles, to receiving stations or system designers or
operators for recording and analysis.
The primary purpose
of any telemetry system is to gather data at a place that is remote
or inconvenient, and to report the data back to a "point of contact"
where the information is evaluated. Telemetry refers to wireless
communications, and is used generally in testing of moving vehicles
such as cars, aircrafts, missiles and satellites. National
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), European Space Agency (ESA)
and other space agencies employ telecommand systems to gather data
from orbiting spacecraft and satellites.
