Transportable orbital tracking, telemetry and command system

NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center has implemented an automated ground-based telemetry, command, and Doppler system. Its function is to support the low-earth-orbiting satellite and sounding rocket programs. This fully transportable system can be configured with the capability to provide unmanned satellite support for seven days or operator augmented automated sounding rocket launch and tracking support. An extensive overview of the evolutionary status and functional capabilities of such systems is provided.<
