Abstract
Small, inexpensive, traditional analog-type telemetric systems have been developed from 1960th. Since the cost of the device is significantly low, it still can be used for one-time use purposes. This paper highlights a methodology of sending a FM signal from the FM transmitter which is based on an inexpensive FM wireless microphone to measure high-altitude ambient air temperature. The FM signal is received by a conventional home FM receiver. This research has focused on the following three aspects;
1. Modifying a FM wireless microphone circuit to build an inexpensive telemetry system.
2. Optimizing the performance of the pulse wave generator and FM transmitter circuits using Design Entry CIS.
3. Converting the frequency of the pulse-wave generator to the corresponding temperature.
