Sweep Frequency Surface Field Measurements.

Abstract

The research described in this report is primarily experimental and deals with the development of surface current and charge measurement techniques for use on scale model aircraft. The report describes a sweep measurement technique where measurements are made by sweeping a frequency with the sensor fixed and positioned in turn at selected measurement points of interest. Design and performance data of a number of current and charge sensors are presented, including the diode sensors that use high resistance telemetry leads for reduced interaction with the model and the incident field.
