Development of an FM Multiplexed Telemetry System for Obtaining Dynamic Data from Operating Tank Track

A system using FM multiplexed radio telemetry was developed and built to provide a data link between operating tank track and the tank hull. Field tests of the system showed that attention to details of the design of the antenna and battery system were successful in avoiding analytical problems.

The field test also demonstrated that the data obtained with the link correlated well with the results of computer modelling.
