The research projects in the BYU Telemetry Laboratory focus on methods and techniques to improve the performance telemetry links. Theoretical analysis and simulation are used to evaluate the application of leading-edge concepts to aeronautical telemetry. During the past ten years, the laboratory projects have focused on new bandwidth efficient waveforms suitable for use with non-linear power amplifiers, modeling of multipath interference, the performance of these waveforms in multipath interference, and the evaulation of multipath mitigating techniqes such as error control coding and adaptive equalization.

The BYU Telemetry Laboratory is equipped with 6 PC workstations, a printer, wideband network access, analysis and simulation software (C-compiler, Matlab, etc.) and a library of real-world data collected at Edwards AFB and Pt. Mugu NAWC.

Funding has come from DOD T&E S&T, ARTM, JPL, NASA, and Edwards AFB. These funds, together with the endowment funded by the International Foundation for Telemetering , have created a unique environment where our university resources and expertise are combined with the experience of test range personnel to solve some of the most challenging problems in aeronautical telemetry today.
