ABSTRACT:
A system permitting VT (Variable Time) fuze setting information to be transmitted thereto from a remote fire control source via a microwave link when the fuze is chambered in a gun barrel prior to the firing of an artillery shell to which the fuze is affixed. Sufficient microwave power is initially transmitted to the fuze by means of the barrel acting as a microwave transmission line wherein the microwave power received is converted to a DC voltage which is stored and used to bias the fuze circuitry which subsequently receives binary detonating data AM modulated on a microwave carrier.
