This is a custom radio design included in TTDL for long range telemetry between a modified C-Band and FPS-16 radar. The component selected were COTS in 2005.
The chip used in this design integrates a microcontroller, a short haul transceiver, and also an AtoD converter. Only the sensors and their associated analog components need to be added. Since the application dictated that there should be no components on the cementing side of the board, only one antenna with a switch to Tx/Rx is used to save space.
