ANTENNA WINDOW: A TECHNIQUE FOR PROPAGATION THROUGH A PLASMA SHEATH.

Abstract

Efforts were continued on the development of the antenna window technique for propagation through a plasma sheath for reentry vehicles. The design of an outer reservoir for the antenna window Dewar is discussed. This will be filled with a fluid and cooled to 77 K to reduce heat transfer into the solenoid. A test for determin ing a suitable fluid for use in the outer re servoir is described. Certain modifications of the Dewar structure, a switch for connecting and disconnecting the current leads from the sole noid, and an S-band transmitter are discussed. (Au
