THE DATA RECOVERY CENTER TARGET SIMULATOR

Abstract

It is very important for the operation of the Lincoln Data Recovery Center to be able to inject into it artificially generated targets. These target-pulses must simulate as closely as possible those appearing in the input from the I. F. tape into the D. R. C. and should be controllable in range, width, amplitude, phase and repetition rate by special computer programs written for the CDC-3200 computer. In addition to the FM channels of the tape, its digital channels must be simulated. A target simulator was constructed to the above specifications and is described.
