  • Patent number: 3987447
    Abstract: A command data link between an aircraft and a missile having a high invulability to jamming by providing a communications system in which the missile receiver is normally off and is gated on only during a short time during which a signal is supposed to appear, as determined by the missile synchronizer. Coded information is transmitted to the missile by the absence of pulses in a pulse train so that spurious pulses received by the missile cannot result in undesirable missile commands.
