Abstract

A wireless target system unit for a weapon effect simulation system. A radio transmitter and receiver communicates with a control system. A laser receiver is arranged for receiving laser light from an attacking system. The wireless target system unit includes two retro-reflecting prisms arranged to retro-reflect an incident laser light from an attacking system. Each reflecting center of the retro-reflecting prisms and a sensor center of the laser receiver are mounted such that they form an isosceles triangle. The distance between the reflecting center of each retro-reflecting prism and the sensor center of the laser receiver are equal.
