ITC USA 2023

The exhibit areas showcase the latest systems, and technical sessions lay the groundwork for tomorrow’s systems. Numerous short courses are available to help practicing professionals stay current in their fields.

Committees discuss the challenges of new technology, standards, security, and even the political aspects of securing and protecting the spectral resources we need. If there is a system, technology, theory or standard a telemetry professional needs to do their job, we make a place for it at ITC.

Regardless of which telemetry band (L-, S-, C-band) is used, the bandwidth is increasingly limited by the steadily growing test operations. At the same time,the measurement data to be accumulated and recorded during flight operations is growing: Measuring points whose measured values are digitized at high sampling rates, high signal dynamic range through 20 or 24 bit resolution or even ONVIF / RTSP network cameras are largely state of the art.

Completely new ways would open up if only the measurement data that is important for a specific test point could be transmitted to the ground station and the system could be reconfigured easily, quickly and safely from the ground station for the next test point. This requires a bi-directional telemetry link between the ground station and the aircraft.

The cooperation between JDA and imc has resulted in a new generation of flight test solutions that is completely based on IRIG 106 standards, incl. the telemetry link based on Chapter 4 or 7.
