Telemetry Systems

The telemetry section of the IRIS-T missile is used for data transmission from the missile to the data collection ground station via a radio link from a transmitter located inside the unit. More specifically, the telemetry system, which has been developed by INTRACOM DEFENSE ELECTRONICS:

• Is connected to the missile guidance section processor via HDLC serial protocol.
• Is connected to the IR seeker via serial PCM serial data sequence.
• Receives inputs from missile analog sensors, which after digitalization are transmitted to the ground station.
• Creates afterwards a PCM data sequence, which follows the IRIG-STD-106 1996, standard (Telemetry Standards). These data after being frequency modulated (FM) are transmitted wireless in the 2.2-2.4 GHz frequency band.
  
  The unit is also equipped with:
• A Radar Transponder which operates in C-band (~5.6GHz)
• A UHF Flight Termination Receiver/Decoder, which operates according to the IRIG-STD-313 1994 standard.
