A DIGITAL METEOROLOGICAL DATA-ACQUISITION SYSTEM

Abstract

Some aspects of the design of the digital meteorological data-acquisition system installed on the Cedar Hill Television Tower near Dallas, Texas, are developed. A discussion is made of the design decisions and techniques employed in developing this system. A detailed development of a novel temperature-difference measuring technique is presented. system design characteristics are presented as a detailed system block diagram. Specific circuit descriptions are beyond the scope of this report, but references to details are provided. System operation and performance data are provided for the first year of operation.
