ARL Support of NRL Rocket Experiments to Investigate Ionospheric Phenomena

Abstract

Applied Research Laboratories, The University of Texas at Austin (ARL:UT), proposed to operate the Coherent Ionospheric Doppler Receivers (CIDRs) in the NorthEast CIDR Array (NECA) in support of two Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) rocket experiments to launched from the Wallops Island Test Facility. NECA is a network on CIDRs that includes a receiver at Wallops Island, Virginia and Millstone Hill, Massachusetts. Each rocket carried a dual frequency VHF/UHF radio beacon onboard the rocket. ARL:UT was to provide equipment trouble-shooting and data processing for these experiments.
