Ku-band antenna acquisition and tracking performance study, volume 4

Content Provider	NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)

Copyright Year	1977
Description	The results pertaining to the tradeoff analysis and performance of the Ku-band shuttle antenna pointing and signal acquisition system are presented. The square, hexagonal and spiral antenna trajectories were investigated assuming the TDRS postulated uncertainty region and a flexible statistical model for the location of the TDRS within the uncertainty volume. The scanning trajectories, shuttle/TDRS signal parameters and dynamics, and three signal acquisition algorithms were integrated into a hardware simulation. The hardware simulation is quite flexible in that it allows for the evaluation of signal acquisition performance for an arbitrary (programmable) antenna pattern, a large range of C/N sub O's, various TDRS/shuttle a priori uncertainty distributions, and three distinct signal search algorithms.
