COMMAND SYSTEM FUNCTIONS, TELEMETRY SYSTEM FUNCTIONS, AND CALIBRATIONS FOR GEOS-B SATELLITE.

Abstract

This report provides a brief description of the command and telemetry systems used on the GEOS-B Spacecraft. In addition it lists the command capability of the satellite and provides a description of the function each command performs. A listing of all functions telemetered from the spacecraft is presented along with a description of each function. Finally, a complete procedure is outlined for converting the information telemetered on a particular channel into engineering units. (Author)
