Introduction:
This memo defines the packet telemetry formats dedicated to the Mars Pathfinder Entry, Descent, and Landing (EDL) mission phases. "EDL" includes the autonomous deployment of petals and airbags.
The Reference specifies in detail the data items to be captured and their rates (if appropriate). This memo specifies in detail the packets' formats for those data items.
Telemetry Phases:
The EDL packet telemetry is collected during six sequential, non-overlapping, time intervals as follows:
Freefall Data Capture
Commences as a timed event exactly 15 minutes after Cruise Stage separation, at an altitude in excess of 160 kilometers.
Entry Data Capture
Commences as a timed event exactly 29 minutes and 30 seconds after Cruise Stage separation (hence 30 seconds before the defined time of atmospheric entry) coincident with the start of the accelerometer-based algorithm to determine the parachute mortar firing time.
Descent Data Capture
Commences as a timed event exactly 20 seconds after parachute mortar firing, coincident with the firing of the group 2 heatshield separation nuts pyros.
Terminal Data Capture
Commences as a timed event exactly 48 seconds after parachute mortar firing, coincident with the enabling of the radar altimeter transmitter.
Landing Data Capture
Commences as a timed event exactly one half second after bridle cut pyro firing, coincident with powering off the radar altimeter.
Deployment Data Capture
Commences as a timed event exactly 60 seconds after bridle cut pyro firing, coincident with the start-roll-stop-algorithm event, and terminates with the end-of-surface-deployment event.
Telemetry Packet Formats:
EDL data is returned in normal CCSDS packets. The maximum packet data size of 2176 bytes (17408 bits) is chosen in conformance with the guideline to not have packets exceed two downlink transfer frames.
Packets are grouped according to five Application Process Identifiers (APIDs) as follows:
APID 27: The full set of Atmospheric Structure Instrument (Experiment) data from RAM. APID 31: The first-to-be-transmitted Critical EDL data from EEPROM. APID 33: Engineering data from EEPROM. APID 38: A subset of Atmospheric Structure Instrument (Experiment) data from EEPROM. APID 39: Engineering data from RAM.
For each APID, there are Packet IDs which specify the exact contents. For each APID/Packet ID there may be several packets which are further labeled by a Packet Number. The final Packet Number of a set is marked by adding the value 1000. The Packet ID and Packet Number constitute the data header for all packets. Only packets which contain periodically sampled data have a meaningful Packet Number (not for APID 31, Packet IDs 0 and 1.)
Periodically sampled packet data is organized into records. All records are physically contiguous, following the Packet ID and Packet Number words. Record formats are described at the end of this memo.
All packets which contain periodically sampled data have the time of the first record recorded in the packet's Secondary Header. Within each such packet the records are time-contiguous at the indicated rate. Periodic data received from the LREU with a "bad data" indication will be recorded as having value zero. Recording of these values maintains the time-continuity of the data stream so that only time-tagging the start of the stream is necessary.
The four-byte "EDL time" consists of the two low-order bytes of the seconds portion of spacecraft time followed by the two bytes of the subseconds portion of spacecraft time (14-bit precision for subseconds, left-justified).
The following discussion relates only to the data portion of an EDL packet.
CRITICAL EDL DATA PACKET (APID 31)
Twenty-one packets are produced for this APID. All recorded items were captured in EEPROM, and then upon uplink command transferred to RAM for formatting into packets. All values are integers which are either scaled converted values, or direct sensor measurements. Packet IDs 0 and 1 contain discrete (non-periodic) data items.
For the packets containing periodically sampled data, the time of the first record is recorded in the packet's Secondary Header. If a processor reset occurs during data-taking, the data resumes after reset in a subsequent packet whose Secondary Header time is that of the first value.

"Event time" means the time at which relay pulse began (assumed 50 milliseconds before it ended) for those events which have such information available, marked by "*" below.

ASI EEPROM EDL DATA PACKET (APID 38)
Eighteen packets are produced for this APID. All recorded items were captured in EEPROM, and then upon uplink command transferred to RAM for formatting into packets. All values are integers which are direct sensor measurements.
All packets contain periodically sampled data, with the time of the first record recorded in the packet's Secondary Header. If a processor reset occurs during data-taking the data disruption is marked in EEPROM. A detected disruption during packet production causes the creation of a new packet whose Secondary Header time is that of the packet's first record.

ENGINEERING EEPROM EDL DATA PACKET (APID 33)
Forty-two packets are produced for this APID. All recorded items were captured in EEPROM, and then upon uplink command transferred to RAM for formatting into packets. There are more data record types represented here than for Engineering RAM EDL Packets (ADID 39), but for those record types in common, those here are captured at a slower rate. All values are integers which are either scaled converted values, or direct sensor measurements.
All packets contain periodically sampled data, with the time of the first record recorded in the packet's Secondary Header. If a processor reset occurs during data-taking the data disruption is marked in EEPROM. A detected disruption during packet production causes the creation of a new packet whose Secondary Header time is that of the packet's first record.

ASI RAM EDL DATA PACKET (APID 27)
Eighteen packets are produced for this APID. All values are unsigned integers which are direct sensor measurements formatted directly into packets in RAM. As such, these packets are subject to loss in the event of RAM power loss.
All packets contain periodically sampled data, with the time of the first record recorded in the packet's Secondary Header. If a processor reset occurs during data-taking all RAM packets that have been produced are lost, and data taking resumes in a subsequent packet whose Secondary Header time is that of the first record.

ENGINEERING RAM EDL DATA PACKET (APID 39)
Nineteen packets are produced for this APID. All values were formatted directly into packets in RAM, and are integers which are either scaled converted values, or direct sensor measurements.
All packets contain periodically sampled data, with the time of the first record recorded in the packet's Secondary Header. If a processor reset occurs during data-taking all RAM packets that have been produced are lost, and data taking resumes in a subsequent packet whose Secondary Header time is that of the first record.
