LEVERAGING TMOIP FOR EFFICIENT TELEMETRY DATA

LEVERAGING TMOIP FOR EFFICIENT TELEMETRY DATA

For most of its history flight telemetry involved getting data to the ground, then routing analog (TTL) clock and data signals around a building to get data to people requiring it in real-time. This was done through noisy electronic environments, required unique infrastructure, and limited the range of real-time data dissemination. Some equipment vendors found ways to transmit the data by converting to IP packets, then using existing Ethernet infrastructure to disseminate through any network-connect system.

Standardizing TMoIP?

In the early days, this method was ad hoc but became standardized in a brief time as the benefits were obvious. Today there several methods in play and they all fall under the term telemetry-over-IP, or “TMoIP.”

Chapter 10 TMoIP, UDP

The first successful method was to take the already used “Chapter 10” packet standard (see blog 3 on the Chapter 10 standard) and transmit the packet intact either using Universal Datagram Protocol (UDP) or TCP/IP stacks. This method supports any Chapter 10 data type.

RCC 218-10, 218-20

In 2010 a temporary standard was put in place to describe PCM data within a Universal Datagram Protocol (UDP) packet. However, this method neglected a time packet, making it impossible to correlate data accurately. This was remedied by a 2020 standard which incorporated the time of the sampled data. This method inserts PCM frame structure into a UDP without other data types being supported.

Network Packet Data (NPD)

This follows the DARv3 protocols and supports UDP and TCP/IP, but it is not widely used or supported by all vendors in the US.

TmNS (Telemetry Network Standard)

This new standard is fully a self-describing method which originates from the iNet concept. This method supports any data type within a UDP stream. This is not widely used as it is very new but will gain favor in time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of organizations can benefit from TMoIP?

Any flight test facility that wishes to disseminate over a wide area of the range or to other ranges in real-time.

How does TMoIP enhance data security?

Since security infrastructures are already in place in almost all networks, this method requires only adherence to facility policies.

Can TMoIP be integrated with existing telemetry systems?

Yes, most vendors already support some or all of the above methods.

What is needed to implement TMoIP in an organization?

To implement TMoIP, an organization needs IP-capable telemetry equipment and access to a reliable IP network. Depending on the specific requirements, additional software or hardware may be necessary for integration and data management.
