Smartronix’ Telemetry and Data Systems (TDS) Division provides world-class aerospace system solutions for telemetry receiving, processing, recording, archiving, and data mining for Government and industry clients.
TDS developed the first PC-based telemetry data processor more than 25 years ago. Since then, the TDS offering has grown to include the most feature-rich ground-based data processing and recording systems in the world for use in all data processing applications. An overview of their current capabilities and products can be found in the “TDS Overview” document.
TDS products include:
OMEGA NExT Real Time Data Processing Software
OMEGA NExT provides EU conversion, data distribution, real time display, and Chapter 10 compliant data recording and is one of the most powerful and easy to use telemetry data processing software ever produced.
IMUX G2 Recorder/Reproducer
The IMUX G2 is an industry leading IRIG 106 Chapter 10 compliant data recorder and reproducer available in either rack mount or portable configurations.
Series 5000 and X-5000 Data Processors
The X-5000 is a small dual stream data processor that can be rack mounted (1U) or portable 1.75 x 12 x 7 inches. The X-5000 has its own embedded processor and Real Time Operating System (RTOS) which provides Ethernet communication for setup and data transfer to a host PC. Multiple X-5000 systems can be synchronized together with an external 10 MHz clock and Ethernet hub in order to provide more PCM streams to the host computer for processing and display.
PCM Data Brick Portable Data Processor
The PCM Data Brick is a small USB based portable telemetry data processor with integrated bit synchronizer and IRIG A, B, and G time inputs. The PCM Data Brick provides data processing up to 50 Mbps per stream and multiple bricks can be used in conjunction with one host computer.
RF Receiver Brick
Telemetry and Data Systems’ high performance single (or dual) band telemetry receiver is designed for portable ground-based, shipboard, and airborne operations. Combined with the PCM Data Brick and the powerful OMEGA Real-time Telemetry Processing software, the PCM Receiver Brick offers instrumentation and telemetry engineers an ideal solution for portable real-time telemetry data applications.
RF Receivers and Combiners
TDS offers the Rx2 rack mount multi-channel receiver and combiner as well as PCI card level receivers and combiners.
OMEGA Data Environment (ODE)
ODE is a post test data mining software tool that leverages search engine technology
Best Source Selector/Best Data Engine (BDE)
Telemetry and Data Systems’ Best Data Engine (BDE) provides an innovative and revolutionary method to dynamically blend all incoming data streams into one composite data stream for output or internal data processing. Typical Best Source Selectors apply metrics to each incoming source of the same data stream coming from different locations on at test range and dynamically switches to the source with the strongest signal characteristics.
Bit Synchronizers
The DBS-400 is a rack mount bit synchronizer that can provide 1 to 4 channels of I/O at up to 60 Mbps per channel. The stand-alone PCM Bit Synchronizer, Model DBS-400, is a multi-featured, digitally-controlled Bit Synchronizer that provides state-of-the-art BER performance. Using patented loop width and tracking features, the DBS-400 excels in harsh noise conditions with a signal-to-noise ratio level superior to every other unit in its class and represents a breakthrough in high-speed digital Bit Synchronizers.
