DESCRIPTION AND PERFORMANCE RESULTS FOR THE ADVANCED RANGE TELEMETRY (ARTM) TIER II WAVEFORM

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 23-26, 2000 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / The Advanced Range Telemetry (ARTM) program is a tri-service telemetry modernization project whose
goal is to assure that all Department of Defense (DoD) test and training ranges are able to use telemetry as
necessary to carry out their respective missions. Multi-h Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) has been
selected by the ARTM JPO as the Tier II ARTM waveform, because it offers significant improvements over
both legacy telemetry waveforms (PCM/FM) and the newly-introduced Tier I waveform (Feher-patented
FQPSK) in terms of spectral containment and detection efficiency, while retaining a constant envelope
characteristic. The paper describes the theoretical and measured performance of the ARTM Tier II multi-h
CPM waveform, and the implementation of the trellis demodulator being developed for it.
