Abstract :
The increased blast area associated with the 120-inch solid rocket motors used on the Titan IIIC required locating the launch control center three and one half miles from the nearest launch complex. To transmit data over this distance, a data transmission system (DTS) with a transmission capability in excess of five miles was developed. The Titan IIIC DTS uses discrete, digital, and analog signals to monitor and control checkout and launch operations.
