    Description: A very broad band of electromagnetic radiation is emitted during solar flares, especially at the explosive phase. The existence of a large variety of plasmas with various densities and a wide range of temperatures or energies is proposed as the initiating agent. The manner in which the plasmas are heated and accelerated to subrelativistic and relativistic energies is discussed. Observational evidence on the characteristics of active regions which produced proton flares and on the structure of the associated nonthermal microwave bursts of the sun is presented. The behavior of subrelativistic electrons on the sun is described.

    Description: High resolution position and spectrum measurements were made of a complex solar radio activity on January 14, 1971, from 1120 to 1130 UT. Positions were measured with 169 MHz Nancay E-W Radioheliograph, while dynamic spectra and polarization were observed with the 60-channel radiospectrograph of Nera. The radio event consisted of two closely similar groups of type 3 bursts and type 2-like details, and a stationary type 4 continuum, including some very clear pulsating structures. The general aspect of this activity is presented.

    Description: Solar burst observations in the region above 10 GHz (wavelengths less than 3 cm.) are discussed. Observations have shown that many major solar events have large millimeter wave components. The total burst radio energy is frequently concentrated in this part of the spectrum. Graphs are presented showing the peak flux density spectrum for bursts on specific dates. Microwave burst mean duration is plotted as a function of the particle energy.

    Description: An examination was made of radar data on depolarized radar echoes for the general areas of (1) the Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17 landing sites, (2) Ranger 7, 8, and 9 impact sites, and (3) the Surveyor 1, 3, 5, and 7 landing sites. These data were then compared with photographic data. Surveyor 6 was excluded because it landed near the center of the lunar disk where echo data are poor. Three problems concerning the echo data are (1) the frequency distributions of echo strengths from site to site, (2) the areal distribution of echoes, and (3) detailed correlation of echoes with the photographs of the Apollo 17 landing area.

    Description: The potential value of traveling solar radio bursts for investigating energetic particle propagation, and for probing the interplanetary medium is discussed. A general survey of the characteristics of type 3 radio phenomena observed at hectometer and kilometer wavelengths is presented along with a brief discussion of the relationships among type 1 meter noise storms, decametric continuum, and type 3 hectometric storms. Type 3 bursts are analyzed to show how these data provide information about the average energy, dispersion, and trajectory of energetic particles, the interplanetary scale, and magnetic field configuration. The recent observations of type 2 shock wave phenomena at kilometer wavelengths are described, and current research and the direction of future observation are outlined.

    Description: Based on limited data, the Mariner 9 performance appears consistent throughout its mission. Several corrections have been provided by inflight verification sequences. A change in photometric response, which will impair precise photometric analysis, has been observed. Hence, only qualified photometric measurement appears feasible under limited conditions. Conversely, certain geometric and electronic parameters appear both measurable and congruent with preflight prediction. The role of inflight verification has been emphasized by these data to assess the in situ camera health and to promote efficient data analysis and interpretation.

    Description: Polarization properties of active regions at 9 mm are discussed, and the observed degree of polarization is used to obtain an estimate of chromospheric magnetic fields. Also discussed is the polarization structure at 9 mm of an active region that produced a minor flare around 1900 UT on September 28, 1971. Total power observations indicate that new regions develop, or weak regions intensify at millimeter wavelengths as a result of bursts at distant sites. The spectra of the peak flux density of moderately strong bursts observed at 9 mm show a sharp drop toward the shorter millimeter wavelengths. The weak bursts at 3.5 mm are manifest mainly as heating phenomena.

    Description: Various statistical parameters of the peak flux-density spectra of solar microwave bursts have been examined for 1968 to 1971 based on spectra obtained from fixed-frequency observations at 245, 606, 1415, 2695, 4995, 8800, 15400, and 35000 MHz. For bursts having a centimeter-radiation component, the great majority were found to have type C spectra (single spectral maximum) in the L-band to K-band range. A small percentage had miscellaneous type spectra (more than one spectral maximum) and another small percentage had what might be taken as thermal spectra. Even for gradual rise-and-fall bursts often thought to be thermal origin, less than 20 percent were found to have spectra which could be classified as thermal. The relationship between the burst spectral maximum (f sub max) and the photospheric magnetic field strength of the region associated with the burst was examined. A tendency for greater correlation at higher f sub max for stronger magnetic fields is noted; however, this is over-shadowed by the overall high correlations for those regions having strong photospheric magnetic fields.

    Description: System performance is determined for an optical communication system using noncoherent detection in the presence of tracking error induced signal fading assuming (1) binary on-off modulation (OOK) with both fixed and adaptive threshold receivers, and (2) binary polarization modulation (BPM). BPM is shown to maintain its inherent 2- to 3-dB advantage over OOK when adaptive thresholding is used, and to have a substantially greater advantage when the OOK system is restricted to a fixed decision threshold.

    Description: Preemphasis schedules are given for 11 constant-bandwidth FM subcarriers modulating an S-band transmitter at various receiver SNRs (9 dB, 15 dB and 25 dB). The criterion for establishing these preemphasis curves is the achievement, at various receiver IF SNR, of equal receiver output SNR for all channels. The empirically derived results are compared with a simplified, analytically derived schedule and the primary differences are explained. The S-band preemphasis schedule is also found to differ from the lower frequency VHF case.

    Description: Telecommunication network concepts are discussed together with carrier-tracking loops employing the phase-lock principle, phase and Doppler measurements in two-way phase-coherent tracking systems, range measurements by phase-coherent techniques, and questions of phase-coherent detection with perfect reference signals and with noisy reference signals. The design of one-way and two-way phase-coherent communication systems is considered, giving attention to the optimal design of single-channel systems, the design of two-channel systems, and the design of multichannel systems. Other topics explored include the design and the performance of phase-coherent systems preceded by band-pass limiters, symbol synchronization and its effects on data detection, noncoherent communication over the Gaussian channel, and tracking loops with improved performance.

    Description: The Lynch-Davisson (L-D) code is shown to be efficient for compressing line-scanned weather charts wherein each line is divided into equal-length segments, and a separate L-D code is generated for each segment. As the number of segments increases, the L-D code length decreases appreciably, thereby simplifying the encoding and decoding operations. However, the accompanying decrease in the overall compression ratio is relatively small.

    Description: An amplitude control technique has been employed for use with analog voice communication systems, which improves low-level phoneme reception and eliminates the received noise between words and syllables. Tests were conducted on a narrow-band frequency-modulation simplex voice communication channel employing the amplitude control technique. Presented for both the modified rhyme word tests and the phonetically balanced word tests are a series of graphical plots of the tests' score distribution, mean, and standard deviation as a function of received carrier-to-noise power density ratio. At low received carrier-to-noise power density ratios, a significant improvement in the intelligibility was obtained. A voice intelligibility improvement of more than 2 dB was obtained for the modified rhyme test words, and a voice intelligibility improvement in excess of 4 dB was obtained for the phonetically balanced word tests.

    Description: One of the fundamental technical problems in aeronautical digital communications is that of multipath propagation between aircraft and ground terminal. This paper examines in detail a model of the received multipath signal that is useful for application of modern detection and estimation theories. The model treats arbitrary modulation and covers the selective and nonselective cases. The necessarily nonstationary statistics of the received signal are determined from the link geometry and the surface roughness parameters via a Kirchhoff solution.

    Description: Consideration of three alternate definitions of cross-polarization known to the author. The three definitions are expressed precisely in terms of the same antenna pattern coordinate system, and the relative merits of the various definitions are discussed. One of the definitions is shown to be the proper choice for describing source current polarizations, another is suitable for relating source current distributions to secondary patterns, and the third is the best choice for describing antenna patterns.

    Description: Bandwidth constraints in earth-satellite communication systems force consideration of uncoded M-ary modulation to obtain increased data rates. M-ary phase shift keying (MPSK) at first glance seems most promising because of the high transmitter efficiency achieved through Class C operation. Multiple phase-and-amplitude modulation candidates such as quadrature amplitude shift keying (QASK) appear less promising because the transmitter must operate at lower efficiency (in linear or multimode operation). However, initial studies indicate that QASK offers significant raw dc-power savings over MPSK, despite the reduced transmitter efficiency. For example, at S-band both solid-state and traveling wave tube (TWT) QASK transmitters can provide a 3-dB average dc-power savings over comparable 16-ary phase shift keying (PSK) for the same bit rate and error probability. The reason for this savings is that QASK requires much less average signal-to-noise ratio than 16-ary PSK for the same error rate.

    Description: Demonstration of the value of cross-correlation signal enhancement achieved by means of a dual magnetometer system. A unique feature of a dual magnetometer system is, as pointed out by Ness et al. (1971), the opportunity it allows for signal enhancement by using cross-correlation techniques developed in statistical communication theory. Their use is shown to make it possible to overcome the limitations that the intrinsic sensor ambient noise and the measurement-contaminating spacecraft field fluctuations impose upon the signal detection performance of a single magnetometer.

    Description: The intense noise bands occurring near the upper hybrid resonance frequency have been observed with the Imp 6 GSFC radio astronomy experiment in the plasmasphere. The identification of the upper hybrid resonance provides an accurate measure of the local electron density and allows the observed noise data to be fit to the scale of characteristic frequencies in the plasma. The data are consistent with earlier theoretical interpretations in which noise is generated between the upper hybrid and plasma frequencies and propagates to region 4 of the CMA diagram, where it is reflected at the L = 0 plasma cutoff.

    Description: Significant improvement in the signal-to-noise performance of television signals has been obtained through the application of comb filtering techniques. This improvement is achieved by removing the inherent redundancy in the television signal through linear prediction and by utilizing the unique noise-rejection characteristics of the receiver comb filter. Theoretical and experimental results describe the signal-to-noise ratio and picture-quality improvement obtained through the use of baseband comb filters and the implementation of a comb network as the loop filter in a phase-lock-loop demodulator. Attention is given to the fact that noise becomes correlated when processed by the receiver comb filter.

    Description: The nonducted propagation of artificial VLF waves through the magnetosphere has been studied by means of data obtained by the FR-1 satellite experiment, in which fixed frequency (16.8 kHz) waves radiated by a transmitter at the ground (at L equals 2.1) are received by the satellite, at 750 km altitude, both in the zone close to the transmitter and in the conjugate zone. From the wave-normal directions and Doppler shifts measured in the conjugate zone, it has been possible to identify waves that have been propagated from the Northern to the Southern Hemisphere in both ducted and nonducted modes. In this paper, the main features of the nonducted wave have been interpreted by ray tracing in models of the magnetosphere. The results improve our understanding as to why very few whistlers are observed on the ground at low latitudes.

    Description: Radio wave propagation in the 40- to 140-GHz band through the earth's atmosphere is strongly influenced by the behavior of the O2 microwave spectrum. This behavior causes the transfer function to depend critically upon altitude. The spectroscopic properties of O2 are discussed and reduced to engineering formulas expressing attenuation and phase dispersion rates in terms of frequency and meteorological parameters. The theory is supported on several accounts by reliable spectroscopic measurements. Pressure scanning spectroscopy is used to investigate the O2 microwave spectrum under simulated atmospheric conditions. The application of spectroscopic information to analytical treatments of transfer properties for inhomogeneous slant paths is demonstrated. Attenuation and phase dispersion between 49 and 72 GHz are evaluated for zenith and tangential paths.

This method presents at the transmitter equal amplitude phonemes so that the low level phonemes, when they are transmitted over the noisey channel, are above the noise and contribute to output intelligibility. The amplitude control technique provides also for squelching of noise when speech is not being transmitted.

    Description: A data compression system has been operating since February 1972, using ATS spin-scan cloud cover data. With the launch of ITOS 3 in October 1972, this data compression system has become the only source of near-realtime very high resolution radiometer image data at the data processing facility. The VHRR image data are compressed and transmitted over a 50 kilobit per second wideband ground link. The goal of the data compression experiment was to send data quantized to six bits at twice the rate possible when no compression is used, while maintaining zero error between the transmitted and reconstructed data. All objectives of the data compression experiment were met, and thus a capability of doubling the data throughput of the system has been achieved.

    Description: The simulation of an adaptive ground implemented phased array of five antenna elements is reported for a very high frequency system design that is tolerant to the radio frequency interference environment encountered by a tracking data relay satellite. Signals originating from satellites are received by the VHF ring array and both horizontal and vertical polarizations from each of the five elements are multiplexed and transmitted down to ground station. A panel on the transmitting end of the simulation chamber contains up to 10 S-band RFI sources along with the desired signal to simulate the dynamic relationship between user and TDRS. The 10 input channels are summed, and desired and interference signals are separated and corrected until the resultant sum signal-to-interference ratio is maximized. Testing performed with this simulation equipment demonstrates good correlation between predicted and actual results.

    Description: The performance of command and telemetry systems, useful in deep-space communications, is frequently affected by the radio-frequency phase error which is introduced at the point of reception by means of the carrier tracking loop. In low data rate communications, this phase error may vary rapidly over the duration of the signaling interval. In this paper such phase variation is characterized by a sinusoidal input phase, K sin (omega sub o t+, pi/6), which models a typical phase variation in communication over turbulent media. Conditions for synchronization stability and the acquisition behavior are examined by detailed computer study of the phase-plane trajectories for the second and third-order loops with perfect integrator. It is demonstrated that for the phase variation considered the third-order loop has no real advantage over the second-order loop. Finally, it is shown that nonzero initial conditions may result in large steady-state phase error.

The analysis assumes state-of-the-art components such as spacecraft oscillator long term stability of one part in 10 to the 8th power and ground station oscillator stability of one part in 10 to the 11th power. Signal characteristics comparable with the present ranging systems are utilized in the analysis. Predicated upon measurement system parameters, position uncertainties for the low orbiting spacecraft vary from 5 meters to 2 kilometers along track, 4 meters to 1 kilometer cross track, and 1 meter to 180 meters radially depending upon the tracking geometry and the high satellite position and velocity error assumptions.

    Description: Rain scatter and surface rain rate data were obtained from October 3, 1970 to October 2, 1971 using a bistatic radar system and tipping bucket rain gauges located in southeastern Virginia. The data showed that interference may occur between earth and terrestrial stations located within 80 km of each other either by mainlobe-to-mainlobe coupling or sidelobe-to-mainlobe coupling. The data further show that the distributions of scattering cross section per unit volume measured at several heights and estimated from surface rain gauge data were different. The density functions for the scattering cross section per unit volume values measured at a 3 km height and estimated from surface rain rate data were identical only for summer thundershowers. The data showed that the CCIR model used to estimate interference due to rain is inadequate because the cell size and change of scattering cross section per unit volume with height estimates of the model predict transmission loss values that are too low (more interference than will occur).

    Description: A class of detection-estimation problems on matrix Lie groups is defined in which the observation noise is multiplicative in nature. By examining the differential versions of the hypotheses, which are bilinear in nature, it is possible to derive the relevant likelihood ratio formula and the associated optimal estimation equations for the signal given the observations and the assumption that the signal is present. These estimation equations are of interest in their own right, in that they represent a finite dimensional optimal solution to a nonlinear estimation problem and can be viewed as consisting of a Kalman-Bucy filter along with the on-line computation of the solution of the associated Riccati equation, which is driven by the observations. The usefulness of these results is illustrated via an example concerning the detection of an actuator failure in a rigid body rotational control system.

    Description: A fixed-beam bistatic CW experiment designed to measure the temporal statistics of the volume reflectivity produced by hydrometeors at several selected altitudes, scattering angles, and at two frequencies (3.6 and 7.8 GHz) is described. Surface rain gauge data, local meteorological data, surveillance S-band radar, and great-circle path propagation measurements were also made to describe the general weather and propagation conditions and to distinguish precipitation scatter signals from those caused by ducting and other nonhydrometeor scatter mechanisms. The data analysis procedures were designed to provide an assessment of a one-year sample of data with a time resolution of one minute. The cumulative distributions of the bistatic signals for all of the rainy minutes during this period are presented for the several path geometries.

    Description: A major achievement of the F-24 experiment on OGO 6 was a verification of the theory of the polarization of proton whistlers. As predicted, the electron whistler was found to be right-hand polarized and the proton whistler left hand polarized. The transition from right- to left-hand polarization was found to occur very rapidly. Thus it appears that the experimental technique may allow great accuracy in the measurement of the cross-over frequency, a frequency that provides information on the ionic composition of the ionosphere.
