Digital Controller Communication Link.
Abstract
This report describes the addition of a communication link between the digital controller (PDP 11/20) in the K-Band Terminal Simulator and digital controller (PDP 11/45) used to control the pointing of the roof top antenna. Both digital controllers are intergral parts of the AFAL Communications System Evaluation Laboratory (CSEL). The need for computer to computer communications in support of the Air Force Avionics Laboratory programs arises from the requirement that data such as probability of error, be moved from the K-Band Terminal Simulator's Spectrum and Interference Generator (SIG) digital processor (PDP 11/20) to another computer (PDP 11/45) for processing and that patterns used in simulating real-time effects on communications channels (fade attenuation, for example) be moved to the SIG digital processor for use in real-time simulation.
