International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 22-25, 2001 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / The Range Commanders Council (RCC) Range Safety Group (RSG) is conducting a study into the next
generation of ground-based flight termination technology, known as the Enhanced Flight Termination
System (EFTS) study. The study was initiated by the RCC in April 2000 and scheduled to be complete
in March 2002. The Government is performing the study with support from contractors and academia. In
addition to the RSG, the Telemetry Group, Frequency Management Group, Telecommunications and
Timing Group of the RCC support the study. Additionally, the National Security Agency is providing
key support along with vendors who design, build, and test range safety systems. This paper will
describe the background, goals, and current status of the study.
