Description

A computer system is described which accurately predicts RF instrumentation system signal margins for missile flight tests. The RF signal margin predictions are a function of the missile trajectory and the parameters of the range balance equation which are explained in detail. The mathematical development of the system is given as well as a presentation of data from a recent missile flight test at AFETR.

A discussion is presented which illustrates how this system may be used as a flight test program planning tool and as an instrumentation system performance analysis device applicable to missile flight test programs.
