International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 17-20, 1994 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / Since the Gulf War, there has been significant interest in Theater Missile Defense
(TMD) resulting in funding growth from tens of millions of dollars at the time of the
Gulf War to $1.7 Billion in 1994. The Ballistic Missile Defense Organization
(BMDO) has developed a Theater Missile Defense test and evaluation program that
will assess technological feasibility and the degree to which system functionality and
performance meet technical and operational requirements. The complexity of the
TMD program necessitates a comprehensive test program which includes flight
testing, ground testing, and modeling and simulation. This article will provide and
overview the requirements and capabilities needed to satisfy these requirements. The
data processing, and telemetry communities will play a major role in providing the
expertise to support the development of the nation’s future Theater Missile Defense
capabilities.
