Abstract :
This paper describes the techniques by which a low cost, light-weight DME was designed to meet both the requirements of the commercial aircraft and the larger general aviation aircraft. These techniques were applied to three principal areas: Channel selection and tuning, the transmitter/modulator, and the range tracking circuitry.
