International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 26-29, 1998 / Town & Country Resort Hotel and Convention Center, San Diego, California / Three-channel monopulse tracking receiver systems are commonly used for high
performance tracking of satellites, missiles, or aircraft to maximize the reception of data.
Typically, the receiver in such systems are custom designed for their end purpose. This
results in a high cost to cover the development, service, and support of a highly
specialized piece of equipment.
This paper covers the requirements and performance of a 3-channel monopulse tracking
receiver assembled from commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) equipment. Such a system
provides an option for designing or upgrading tracking stations with the lower cost, larger
support base, and greater system configuration choices that are available with COTS
equipment.
