Based on the simulation results, a prototype
radar system was designed operating in the frequency-modulated continuous wave
(FM-CW) mode to generate the two desired frequency modes. To reduce cost and
development time, a modified version of a 500-2000 MHz FM-CW radar was used
that was developed to map near-surface internal layers over the Greenland ice
sheet as a means to estimate the accumulation rate.
In this approach, each memory board is
identical electrically and receives its bus ID upon connection into the system.
The memory modules can be placed in any location of the ring bus, however the
location can be chosen to minimize data latency and data congestion. The
architecture allows for multiple memory boards to be accessed simultaneously by
different elements in the system.
In the new approach, each memory board is
identical electrically and receives its bus ID upon connection into the system.
The computer elements are configured in a similar fashion. The architecture
allows for multiple memory boards to be accessed simultaneously by different
computer elements. The architecture results in a scaleable, robust fault
tolerant system.
We have designed and
demonstrated an L-band high-efficiency phase-stable T/R module that has been
augmented with a closed-loop calibration circuit to achieve the 1° phase and
0.1-dB amplitude stability.
A document discusses
a method by which GMSK (Gaussian minimum shift keying) modulation and a
pseudonoise (PN) ranging signal may be combined. The proposed combined GMSK
communications and PN ranging is one potential approach to address emerging
requirements for simultaneous high data rate communications from and tracking
of vehicles in deep space or at the Moon.
