The Conformal C-Band/Multi-band Antenna project will support the AWS-3 auction by providing the technology to integrate C-Band or multi-band telemetry(TM) antennas on test articles such as missiles, weapons, or aircraft. These test articles would then provide C-Band or multi-band TM data to ground station receivers that are relocated to the C-Band frequency range through the AWS-3 Spectrum Relocation Fund program. This project would advance the technology of antennas in the C-Band region for test article TM integration. Successful use of C-Band and Multi-Band antennas for aeronautical mobile telemetry (AMT) on test and training ranges is dependent on the advancement of key technologies. This paper will detail the technology areas being matured by this project as well as the capabilities to be demonstrated.Sponsors
