Advanced VLF/LF Receive System Developed under the Tri Service Propagation Program,

Abstract

The report describes the advances made in VLF/LF reception and analysis with the application of a computer-controlled narrowband receive system (HP 3040A). It also describes the techniques used and the difficulties encountered during the design and fabrication of an interface to interconnect a Hewlett-Packard (HP) Network Analyzer to a Data General Nova 1200 Minicomputer. The HP 3040A Network Analysis System was specifically designed to operate remotely with slower, more tolerant devices than a computer. The recommended remotely controlling devices are an HP 3260A Marked Card Programmer for input and a Teletypewriter for direct output. The software driver programs to direct the Nova/Analyzer interface and the new System's performance data are also discussed.
