ACCEPTANCE OF BIG RALLY II COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

Abstract

The Big Rally 2 (BR2) system was designed and built as a temporary communication system to fulfill the immediate needs of the U. S. Air Force. This system is part of a greater network and designed to connect military installations in Italy, Greece and Turkey with command control installations in central Europe. The BR2 interface at site ID was selected as the focal point for system testing. The plan was to take circuits interfaced at ID and running through the system to certain terminal stations, the performance of which would be a yardstick of the system performance. Testing was divided into two basic categories: 1) Individual equipment or station testing and, 2) System testing involving all links assigned to a particular circuit or group of circuits under test. Station testing was effected at all sites and thus tested all items of operational equipment on an individual or single link basis. System tests were planned for circuits or links to present data indicative of the system performance as a whole.
