SURFACE WIND MODEL FOR UNGUIDED ROCKETS USING SPECTRUM AND CROSS-SPECTRUM TECHNIQUES

Abstract

Power Spectrum, Cross-Spectrum, and Least Squares Techniques are used for determining representative surface wind fields minutes prior to and during the firing of high altitude unguided sounding rockets. A definition of a representative wind field, the derivation of the model, and an example field are presented. (Author)
