Glossary of some telemetering terms: Joint subcommittee on telemetering terminology

THIS publication is the result of the efforts of the Joint Subcommittee on Telemetering Terminology of AIEE and IRE (The Institute of Radio Engineers) to foster a common nomenclature in the various branches of telemetering. Sponsored by the AIEE through the Committee on Instruments and Measurements and its Group Subcommittee on Telemetering, and by the IRE through the Professional Group of Telemetry and Remote Control, it is not intended to be all inclusive. This sponsorship is not intended to imply agreement by the sponsoring groups with the definitions as given, nor is it intended in any way to convey approval of, or a preference for, these definitions or terminology. It is hoped that it will aid personnel in the compilation of telemetering reports and be of assistance when telemetering specifications are drafted by industrial and government establishments. It is essentially that submitted at the Workshop Session of the National Telemetering Conference in Chicago, May 1954, at the Hotel Morrison, which was sponsored by AIEE, IRE, IAS (Institute of Aeronautical Sciences), and ISA (Instrument Society of America).
