Tracking translated GPS signals
Abstract
A review is presented of the Western Space and Missile Center's Translator Record and Interface System (TRIS) to track high-dynamic test vehicles. An operating prototype of TRIS was tested with signals from a stationary GPS translator. This prototype demonstrated utilization of commercially available telemetry equipment for the S-band receiver and predetection record/playback functions of TRIS.
