Abstract

A FTS (Flight Termination System) is a system that resides in a flying object such as a rocket, unmanned airplane, helicopter, missile, etc., receives commands from ground stations or detects coordinates automatically, and accomplishes a destruction command in case the object does not follow the presumed orbit. In this paper, we address the implementation of a communication modem for the FTS modem. We present general theory, simulation results using Matlab, and several results on the implementation using VHDL.
