Flight tests telemetry link for small and medium aircrafts

Resumo

It is common at the great aerospace companies or research centers to perform flight tests in facilities deployed for aircrafts and systems evaluation. These resources require high planning and investments comprising telemetry system, airborne and terrestrial equipments, calibration labs and specialized staff. It proposes in flight data acquisition means for support tests programs of aircrafts and airborne systems of low complexity in new developments. Also, it can be used as an optimization tool by introducing the telemetry efficiency concept applied to the development of new aircrafts where there are at least two prototypes read to fly.Copyright © 2005 Society of Automotive Engineers, Inc.
