چکیده
This paper describes results of UHF telemetry R&D tests conducted at White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), New Mexico. UHF telemetry problems, such as multipath and target scintillation, are discussed. Several recommendations which may improve the reliability of telemetry data transmission at UHF frequencies are made based on experience and data gained from many UHF telemetry tracking operations.

Enclosed weapon bays on modern aircraft interfere with prelaunch, Flight Termination System verification during training test launches. Range safety personnel need to verify the functionality of the flight termination system prior to missile launch. The missile telemetry RF is highly attenuated when the aircraft missile bay doors are closed, limiting the range for which the aircraft can fly dur...
