Space Surveillance Software Support. Volume I, Part 2. RADC Trajectory Program Numerical/Analytical Data.

Abstract

This report contains the numerical and analytical data base useful for the missile/space vehicle mission analyst. Operational constraints considered were: launch site locations, orbital transfer maneuvers, and missile burnout parameters. Volume 2 documents a procedure for punching cards in ASCII format and reading the data onto a HP cassette for subsequent plotting with an HP9820 calculator system. Volume 3 documents some Radar Signature and RAdar Scattering computer programs. A three dimensional plot program contained in this volume has been incorporated into the Interactive Radar Simulator for plotting three dimensional antenna patterns and cross section aspect angle histories.
