ITC/USA 2015 Conference Proceedings / The Fifty-First Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 26-29, 2015 / Bally's Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, NV / The emission of the telemetry signal is required over minimum two different antennas to keep the telemetry link available during a maneuver of a flying object. If nothing is made at the transmitter side, the telemetry link can be fully lost as both signals may have an opposite phase. We here propose a simple solution based on delay diversity to solve this problem. The basic idea is to introduce a delay between both emitted signals to guarantee a non-destructive signal recombination. We then exploit the ability of the blind equalizer developed by ZDS for the PCM/FM modulation to correctly equalize this signal and to recover the initial data. This solution does not require any modification of the on-board and floor set-ups except the introduction of a delay line between both transmitting antennas. It also does not need any pilot sequence and is natively robust to multipath perturbations.
