THE ELECTROMAGNETIC PROPAGATION RANGE FACILITY AT THE BALLISTIC RESEARCH LABORATORIES

Abstract

The report describes the instrumented range facility designated the Electromagnetic Propagation Range as established by the Ballistic Research Laboratories (BRL) in support of fundamental research in the near-earth meteorological environment. It includes a description of the multi-channel, high-speed, digital data acquisition system, the types of instrumentation used for obtaining meteorological data, methods of instrument and sensor calibration, and typical results of field programs. Tabulated data and photographs of all parts of the system are included.
