Ammunition for measurements

Abstract: The proximity fuzed 3P ammunition is programmed during the loading of the piece to the desired operation mode. To guarantee that the ammunition receives the programming signals correctly and thus being able to eliminate the programming as a source of errors in the event of a possible failure there is a need to evaluate the process of loading. Such an evaluation of possible programming errors could be performed with an ammunition for measurements. An ammunition for mesurements would be based on complete 3P electronics and additional electronics for the evaluation of theprocess of loading. The task for the master thesis has been to develop a lab-system to aid in the development of an ammunition for measurements. This thesis describes with a introductory litterature study the work to create a lab-system. The constructed lab-system is based on an evaluation card including among other things a digital signal processor from the Blackfin family from Analog Devices. Tests and measurements show that the work has resulted in a well functioning lab-system, which meets the requirements of the task. In conclusion the thesis also describes comprehensively the remaining work to create a complete ammunition for measurements with the aid of the lab-system.
