MIL-G-46858A
3.5.2.3 Transmitters. - When specified (see 6.2), the command guidance subsystem shall use
transmitters for the purpose of providing a signal source for use by the remote control station
in missile tracking (beacon transmitter) or for the transmission of missile attitude/position/
condition intelligence to the remote control station for guidance and control purposes (monitor
transmitter).
3.5.2.3.1 Beacon transmitters. - Beacon transmitters used in the command guidance
subsystem shall be capable of modulation by a signal specified by the detail specification for
purposes of missile identification.
3.5.2.3.2 Monitor transmitters. - Monitor transmitters used in the command guidance
subsystem shall be capable of modulation by measurement units that monitor signals from one
or more missile attitude/position/condition test points as specified in the detail specification.
This information may by multiplexed or coded as specified in the detail specification.
Furthermore, the impedance levels of these measurement units shall not impair the
performance of the guidance and control system.
* 3.5.2.3.3 Continuous wave transmitter. - When a continuous wave transmitter is employed in
the system to carry out the functions for either a beacon or monitor transmitter, the
requirements of 3.5.2.3.3.1 through 3.5.2.3.3.6 shall apply.
3.5.2.3.3.1 Frequency range. - The transmitter shall be capable of operating in a frequency
range specified in the detail specification.
3.5.2.3.3.2 Frequency stability. - The radio frequency (RF) carrier shall be stable to within a
specified percent of the assigned frequency under any combination of environmental
conditions as specified herein.
3.5.2.3.3.3 Frequency modulation (FM) sensitivity. - The modulation sensitivity shall be no
greater than a specified root-mean-square voltage for a specified frequency deviation.
3.5.2.3.3.4 Frequency modulation linearity. - The deviation shall not vary more than a
specified frequency from the predicted value as the amplitude of the modulating signal is
increased from zero to the value required to produce a specified frequency deviation.
3.5.2.3.3.5 Modulation frequency response. - The modulation frequency shall be flat within
plus or minus a specified number of decibels as the modulating signal frequency is varied over
a specified range of frequencies.
3.5.2.3.3.6 Output power. - The requirements of the minimum output power shall be in
accordance with those specified in the detail specification.
