Crystal Controlled L-Band Telemetry Transmitter.

The effort included development of an L-Band Telemetry Transmitter having approximately 150 mW output with an efficiency of 10 percent. The transmitter is designed to withstand firing from 105 mm and 155 mm artillery weapons. It operates at 1510 MHz and is crystal controlled to obtain a frequency stability of 0.002 percent. The unit is constructed using microstrip circuits using high dielectric constant ceramic substrates. Modified author abstract
