Abstract :
The Common Test Station (CTS) provides a standard ATE system for use in meeting the unique needs of guided munitions testing. These munitions often require real-time, asynchronous stimuli and responses across multiple interfaces to simulate real-world operation. The CTS is designed to meet the technical challenges inherent in testing guided munitions while in factory, depot, or weapons station environments
