The basic telemetry-system concept for Explorer XI11 was selected primarily on the basis of demonstrated performance (ref. IV-1). The successful orbiting of Vanguard I1 (1939 Alpha) and Vanguard I11 (1959 Eta) had proven the basic design of the tracking and telemetry concepts which were compatible with mini- track network. It was necessary for the NASA Langley Research Center (LRC) to expand the system to provide a 48-channel telemetry system. Two of these sys- tems were used in the Explorer XI11 in order to provide the required channel capacity.
