A STATUS REPORT OF THE JOINT ADVANCED MISSILE INSTRUMENTATION PROGRAM AN OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE CENTRAL TEST AND EVALUATION INVESTMENT PROGRAM INITIATIVEScofield, Don, Powell, Dave 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 23-26, 2000 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / Joint Advanced Missile Instrumentation (JAMI), a 1997 new-start multi-year Central Test and Evaluation
Investment Program (CTEIP), is developing advanced telemetry system components that can be used in
an integrated instrumentation package for tri-service small missile test and training applications. JAMI
will provide telemetry, Time-Space-Position Information (TSPI), flight termination and end-game vector
scoring in a low cost, modular package that will allow world-wide test and training- eliminating, in most
cases, the need for range-specific (or multi-system) facilities. JAMI will incorporate Global Positioning
System (GPS)-based technology as the TSPI and vector scoring engine, and is completing the
development of a solid state programmable safe and arm device for flight safety applications. The JAMI
program has progressed into Phase 2 and full-scale development of advanced GPS technologies. This
paper discusses the progress of the program during the past year and the efforts planned for fiscal year
2000. Testing of GPS receivers and problems encountered in programming GPS simulator for missile
flight profiles are discussed.

The Subminiature Flight Safety System (SFSS) Development ProgressLambeth, Stephen, Dehmelt, Chris 10 1900 (has links)
ITC/USA 2013 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Ninth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 21-24, 2013 / Bally's Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, NV / SFSS is a universal, small, and low cost, functionally redundant flight termination system (FTS) that incorporates encoding, processing and TSPI capabilities, provides critical health/safety/welfare monitoring and allows for highly efficient telemetering of weapon application and FTS data. The SFSS is intended as a solution to provide weapon system developers, test agencies, and range safety officers the ability to track, monitor, and if necessary, terminate all types of weapon systems. The SFSS components are intended to significantly reduce the recurring costs and improve the quality of test support by minimizing physical intrusion into weapon systems, and potentially eliminating the need for warhead removal. In addition, a common hardware suite assists in reducing the overall system cost of acquisition, a key element in today's world of stressed budgets. The SFSS is designed to interface with newly developed weapon systems, while providing the capability to be integrated into existing weapon systems with nominal modifications to the platform. The SFSS development is a multi-disciplinary effort, whose participating organizations include industry suppliers, range and system safety representatives, and technical offices from all branches of the armed services, as well as the weapons vendors to ensure that applicable technical and regulatory requirements are met. The original requirements for the project were defined within the SFSS System Performance Specification (SPS), which has undergone a number of updates as the design effort has progressed from concept to assembly and debug of the prototype components. This paper will provide an overview of the overall program status, key features of the SFSS including features added during development, critical design challenges, and additional activities planned to enhance the functionality of the system.

The Subminiature Flight Safety SystemWoodard, Tracy, Dehmelt, Chris 10 1900 (has links)
ITC/USA 2011 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Seventh Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 24-27, 2011 / Bally's Las Vegas, Las Vegas, Nevada / Weapons platform testing and monitoring have historically consisted of custom telemetry and flight safety system solutions tailored to the requirements (including Title 10 Mandates) and size constraints of individual platforms. The size of these individual components of these systems has necessitated that warhead replacement to facilitate insertion of these units to support test and evaluation activities. Currently there are no products available to meet these requirements in a miniaturized and modular package. L-3 Communications Telemetry East (L-3 TE) has developed an extensive background in providing solutions to gather vital missile and target information over the last several decades. Under the auspices of Eglin AFB, L-3 TE is leading a multi-disciplinary team to design and develop the Subminiature Flight Safety System (SFSS) to support existing and new weapons applications. SFSS is a universal, small, and low cost redundant flight termination system (FTS) that incorporates encoding, processing and TSPI capacities that provides critical health/safety/welfare monitoring and allows for highly efficient telemetering of all weapon application and FTS data. The SFSS is intended as a solution to allow weapon system developers, test agencies, and range safety officers the ability to track, monitor, and if necessary, terminate all types of weapon systems. It is designed to interface with newly developed weapon systems, while providing backward compatibility to meet existing requirements with minimal modifications to the weapon. The SFSS components are intended to significantly reduce the cost and improve the quality of test support by providing a highly integrated solution that minimizes physical intrusion into weapon systems, by eliminating the need for warhead removal. In addition, a common hardware platform will reduce overall system cost of acquisition and maintenance to the government, a key element in today's world of stressed budgets.

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 21, 2002 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / The Air Force Flight Test Center in association with the Range Commanders Council (RCC) Range Safety Group is conducting a program that will explore the next generation of ground-based flight termination technology, known as the Enhanced Flight Termination System (EFTS) program. The first part of the program was successfully concluded in May 2002. The Government is leading this program with support from contractors, academia, and other RCC groups including the Telemetry Group, Frequency Management Group, and Telecommunications and Timing Group. Additionally, the National Security Agency is providing key support along with vendors who design, build and test range safety systems. This paper will discuss details of the design validation and development phases (part two) of the EFTS program. Redesign of flight termination receivers and ground system modification plans will be discussed as well as flight and ground hardware testing objectives.
