EXPANDED LITTLE IDA PROGRAM INSTRUMENTATION

Abstract

The prime objective of this program is the collection and analysis of H.F. propagation data that will aid in the design and operation of over-the- horizon radar systems. The equipment discussed in this report will be utilized to meet the objective. The new instrumentation discussed herein includes equipment required at (1) the Starr Hill, New York central receiving site; (2) the Coco Solo, Canal Zone transmitting site; and (3) the two new transmitting sites. Specific equipment discussed in this report includes HF antennas, a high dynamic range HF receiver, digital and mode processors, absolute timing system, ionospheric sounders, Phantom pulse compression system, and test and communication equipment.
