This paper deals with the design and development of microcontroller based electronic modules for counter defilade system for low velocity airburst munitions. The proposed design increases safety, cost efficiency and is highly feasible with existing weapons for infantry units. For system development, airburst analysis of munitions was investigated to theoretically determine the effect on target in defilade. Static rig testing of the entire system has also been performed to determine the response, triggering time and optimization of module design.
