| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a towed/surrogate decoy transmitter connectable via the tow cable to a platform or host aircraft using a wireless communicator link, the link providing useful performance and status information of the decoy transmitter to the host aircraft and providing the decoy with control and optimization information from the platform. The tow cable provides a mechanical connection to the host aircraft as well as a prime power connection and in some cases, a fiber optic (FO) interface. In order to optimize the protection provided by the towed/surrogate decoy transmitter, the host aircraft will use the wireless communication link to transmit operational status and control adjustment data back to the towed/surrogate decoy transmitter. The towed/surrogate decoy transmitter utilizes a wireless communicator link that can transmit data to any cooperative host aircraft and any other cooperative towed/surrogate decoy transmitters.
