ISRO will use native processor for Earth to space signals

Indian Space Research Organisation has stated that the indigenous(स्वदेशी)  development of Telemetry (दूरमापी) & Telecommand Processor (TTCP) has been realised and its production will be initiated with the help of Indian industry. The processor, whose development was taken up by ISRO as part of

‘Make in India’ campaign, replaces expensive(महंगा)  imported equipment.

The inter-planetary spacecraft use an international standard known as Consultative (परामर्श ) Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS), and presently equipment are being imported for telemetry reception and telecommand transmission requirements.

TTCP will be used in Integrated Spacecraft Testing of Low Earth Orbit, Geostationary (भू-स्थिर) Orbit and Interplanetary Spacecraft, ISRO stated.

Geostationary Orbit

भू-स्थिर

Definitions of geostationary adjective (of an artificial satellite of the earth) moving in a geosynchronous orbit in the plane of the equator, so that it remains stationary in relation to a fixed point on the surface. This orbit is achieved at an altitude of 22,300 miles (35,900 km) above the earth. It is used by communication and meteorological satellites.
