Annual Report for Contract Year 1 September 1970 to 31 August 1971.
Abstract
This report covers the work which was performed during the 1970 - 1971 contract year. A comparison of the azimuthal resolution of a CDAA and an interferometer was made with good results. The effects of multipath propagation on direction of arrival of radio waves has been under investigation. A study of a technique for the correction of the diurnal deviation of radio waves has progressed. The measurement of the elevation angle of arrival using the phantom antenna has not produced the expected results. A study is under way to determine why these results are in error. A measurement of the levels of RF noise as a function of azimuth is in progress. Methods of automatic data acquisition and system calibration are of special interest. Other possible methods for the measurement of elevation angle of arrival using a CDAA are discussed. Service work performed for RADC during the past year is discussed.
