Definitions
- the invention relates to a weapon system with a fire control system and an ammunition unit that can be fired from a weapon.
- ammunition-specific data such as ammunition type, Lot number, production date etc.
- This data will be introduced after the respective cartridge into the loading space of the weapon a reader automatically reads and into the Transfer fire control system.
- the fire control system then generates considering this as well as target specific Data directional signals for the aiming system of the weapon as well if necessary, control signals for activating one in the respective Cartridge arranged electronically programmable Detonator. For this purpose, this is arranged in the cartridge and an electronic microcontroller Circuit device connected.
- the present invention is based on the object Weapon system to reveal a permanent safe Check the connection of the fire control computer to the controllable ones Assemblies of the respective ammunition unit simple way is possible.
- the invention is based on the idea a bidirectional data transmission via the two to Voltage or power supply of the electronic circuit device the respective ammunition unit Lines.
- the data transmission takes place from the fire control system to the electronic circuit device by means of a voltage modulation of the supply voltage and the data transfer from the circuit device to the fire control computer by means of a current modulation of the operating current.
- Such bidirectional data transmission also allows the continuous monitoring of the operating current and the transmission voltage for the safe detection of interruptions or short circuits in the connecting lines. This is particularly advantageous because the contact to the ammunition via a mechanical contact and thus affected by vibration and other influences can be.
- For modulating the supply voltage and for demodulation of the operating current is between the fire control system and the ammunition unit switched converter provided.
- the modulated supply voltage is demodulated as well as the modulation of the operating current through interface modules and the microcontroller of the electronic Circuit device.
- the converter and the electronic circuit device of the respective ammunition unit work in the master-slave Operation together, with the converter performing the master function takes over.
- 1 is a fire control system, e.g. a battle tank, with 2 a converter and with 3 one in the, not shown Gun barrel of the tank located cartridge.
- the fire control system 1 is both via a bidirectional CAN data bus (ISO-IS 11898) 4 as well as via a e.g. two-wire, cable 5 for power and voltage supply connected to the converter 2.
- This is in the fire control system 1 integrated current / voltage supply unit with the reference numeral 6 and the CAN bus interface with the Reference numeral 7 marked.
- the fire control system 1 electronic circuit device 8 arranged, which includes two assemblies 80 and 81 (Fig.2).
- the first assembly 80 contains a microcontroller 9 with data storage for storing ammunition-specific data (firing table parameters).
- the second electronic assembly 81 is used for activation the not shown for reasons of clarity Missile detonator.
- the one arranged between the cartridge 3 and the fire control system 1 Converter 2 serves both the voltage supply of the Circuit device 8 and for modulating the supply voltage with those coming from the fire control system 1 Control signals.
- the control signals include e.g. also the request for the firing board parameters from assembly 80 and the input of the temperature data for the assembly 81 in the Cartridge 3.
- the voltage supply of the circuit device 8 is in the converter 2 with the help of a voltage converter 11 and one this downstream power amplifier 12 has an output voltage from e.g. 30V generated. Unless there is a data transfer takes place in the ammunition, the output voltage is constant and regardless of the power consumption of the circuit device 8th.
- the modulated supply voltage is then via the Supply lines 15 and 16 the modules 80, 81 of supplied electronic circuit device 8 and from demodulates this.
- the module 80 is the modulated Supply voltage (e.g. 30V ⁇ 5V) via a voltage divider 17 compared with a reference voltage and back in a high / low level for feeding into the RS232 signal Microcontroller changed.
- Module 81 only reacts to timed negatives Voltage pulses (-10V) via signal input 21 and by transferring data to assembly 80 influenced. Indeed module 80 recognizes by a voltage window comparator, that the voltage modulation in the minus range only Contains data for assembly 81.
- the demodulated signal values are used to control the modules 80 and 81 used.
- the microcontroller 9 assembly 80 prompted for the saved firing board parameters to be transferred to the converter 2.
- the (TTL) signals of the microcontroller 9 a changeable Load resistor 20 on so that e.g. a high signal an increase in the operating current and a low signal Reduction of the operating current of the assembly 80 causes.
- the operating current modulated in this way is then in the Converter 2 demodulated.
- the demodulation of the Operating current of module 80 - regardless of the size the supply voltage through the measuring resistor 13 and the Current amplifier 14.
- the data modulation in the Unit 80 induced plus-minus operating current change gives a at the measuring resistor 13 of the converter 2 proportional voltage with one in the microcontroller 10 included voltage comparator in corresponding (TTL) Signals are converted.
- TTL voltage comparator in corresponding
- assembly 81 contains (Fig.2) no microcontroller.
- the transfer of the temp occurs through a negative start-stop voltage pulse.
- the time between start and stop pulse is an analog one Measure and proportional to the temp time to be set.
- a bidirectional data traffic takes place with the module 81 only held to a limited extent.
- the correct temp acknowledged by a brief increase in the operating current.
- the decoding is also done here by the current detection with the help of the measuring resistor 13 in the converter 2.
