Free Running Radio Controlled Surface Ship Model Experiments. Part I. Multiplex and Telemetry Equipment.

Abstract

An FM data multiplexing system and an FM telemetry system have been incorporated into a large surface ship model. Specifications of the system and details of the equipment operation and use for radio-controlled model experiments are discussed. In general, the system can accommodate identical transducers to those commonly used in routine carriage experiments. While a small additional error may result from use of the telemetry process, the new system provides a capability to perform routine maneuvering experiments in waves at a comparable cost to those for other routine experiments.
