Test and evaluation of a remote control and radiofrequency repeater system for televised radar display applications
Abstract
Engineering models were evaluated of a remote control system (RCS) for a BRITE-2 televised display and a radiofrequency (RF) repeater operating at 14.87 and 15.07 GHz. Major portions of the laboratory tests were achieved during the factory acceptance tests. Testing was directed toward establishing a system configuration appropriate for a satellite airport. The RCS operational capability utilizing a C sub 1 conditioned voice-grade line was assured. The RF repeater was compatible with an existing microwave link which permitted experiments with mixed radar video and alphanumeric data inputs into the RF system. With the addition of the new equipments, system versatility was increased.
