Data Analysis Techniques for Vehicle Attitudinal, Positional and Experimental Measurements.

Abstract

Time related data analysis techniques applied to the TEM-3 Rocket and Talos-Castor Rocket A51.971 are discussed in the reduction of gyro and positional information. Procedures developed to calculate wind velocities and shears for balloon interferometer and radiometer measurements of Balloon Altitude Mosaic Measurements Flight III data are outlined. Altitude dependent analysis procedures to calculate the electron and particle distribution functions in the ionosphere are presented, and results of a spectral analysis study of stratospheric wind data are shown.
