Abstract:

The contractor was required to conduct a feasibility study, design, produce, test and deliver one prototype model of a Remote Scoring Electronic Practice Mine System. A radio frequency link was used between the individual mines and a remote receiving scoring console. Each mine upon detonation will emit a unique radio signal. The receiver, upon reception of a particular mine signal, will cause a specific light to illuminate on the receiver console. As a direct result of this contract, a special loop antenna was designed and developed to facilitate the transmission of a radio frequency signal over 1000 meters while completely buried.
