Abstract
This article describes the on‐board data analysis techniques used on two recent space plasma particle instruments to compute meaningful parameters of three‐dimensional plasma distributions in real time. These parameters may be transmitted with much higher time resolution than the full distribution within the limited telemetry. In addition, they greatly reduce the ground processing requirements.Keywords
