TELEMETRY MODERNIZATION AT THE KWAJALEIN MISSILE RANGE

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 22-25, 2001 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Telemetry support has been a component of the instrumentation test support structure at
Kwajalein Missile Range (KMR) for nearly 40 years. From a limited initial suite of manually
pointed telemetry antennas, the Range has grown to include nine tracking antennas and four
fixed receiving antennas. This paper describes the current modernization program at KMR that
will include nine new telemetry trackers and five fixed antennas that will be networked and
controlled via fiber optic links from a newly established telemetry control center on the island of
Kwajalein. These upgrades will reduce operational cost and institute efficiencies, while
continuing to meet Range Users’ growing requirements.
