Partial Reflection Experiment: Operational and Data Reduction Techniques.

Abstract

Operational and analytical procedures for reducing D-region partial reflection data obtained at White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) were reviewed and analyzed with the expectation that this equipment would be used to deduce D-region electron density profiles during the total solar eclipse of 26 February 1979 in Canada. The procedures devised as the result of this study are applicable to data obtained during the eclipse at a Canadian site as well as to data obtained during longer term operation at WSMR. (Author)
