Spacecraft telemetry is used to transport telemetry data from a spacecraft to the ground system.
The TM Encoder is part of the on-board spacecraft system.
It takes telemetry data, typically contained in packets, and formats them into a data stream
for downlink to the ground.
When the data stream reaches the ground it is processed by the
TM Decoder to extract the packets and other data.
The TM Space Data Link Protocol forms a central part of the telemetry system. The protocol carries packets and other data structures, formatted into telemetry transfer frames.
Our Telemetry Encoder Shell and Telemetry Decoder Shell packages support the CCSDS, ESA and ECSS telemetry standards. Earlier issues of the standards used the name Packet Telemetry.
