Telemetry Range Support Aircraft (TRSA) Program Providing the Navy with Next Generation TM and Range SupportRoudebush, J. Kyle, Hernandez, Jose, Kujiraoka, Scott, Sanchez, Kenneth 10 1900 (has links)
The aircraft currently being used to support the Navy’s mission of Telemetry Reception, Range Safety as well as Range Surveillance/Clearance are reaching the end of their useful life. As a result, there are ongoing efforts to procure a new aircraft and integrate these mission systems in order to continue the support of critical Naval Test Range operations. This paper will detail the current efforts being undertaken to upgrade a Gulfstream 550 to perform Range Support missions for the Multi-service Government Test Ranges.

AUTOMATED ACOUSTIC DETECTION AND PROCESSING FOR THE ADVANCED RANGE INSTRUMENTATION AIRCRAFT SONOBUOY MISSILE IMPACT LOCATION SYSTEMSchaeffer, Paul J. 11 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / November 04-07, 1991 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Recent advances in acoustic detection and array processing have led to a new, state of the art, Sonobuoy Missile Impact Location System (SMILS). This system was developed for the 4950th Test Wing by E-Systems and the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory to support ballistic missile testing in broad ocean areas.
The hardware and software required to perform the SMILS mission were developed in two different areas: 1) The flight system, installed aboard the Advanced Range Instrumentation Aircraft (ARIA), which provides everything necessary to guide the aircraft to the target area of Deep Ocean Transponders (DOTs), deploy sonobuoys, recover signals from the sonobuoys, and to process the recovered signals. The sonobuoy positions and impact locations of reentry vehicles are determined aboard the aircraft in real-time by telemetering the acoustic signals sent from the sonobuoys via Radio Frequency (RF) link to the aircraft. These acoustic signals are also recorded on analog tape in the aircraft. 2) The Post Mission Analysis System (PMAS), located at the 4950th Test Wing, processes the analog tapes recorded by the aircraft to do more sophisticated Processing than that performed on the aircraft, providing higher resolution of impact times and positions.
This paper addressees the theory of PMAS operation and the specific approach used to perform automated acoustic detection of both narrow and wide band acoustic signals. It also addressees the processing technique employed to determine sonobuoy navigation and impact scoring.

Elektriskt Framdrivningssystem för Högpresterande Ultralätt Flygplan / Electric Propulsion for High Performance Ultralight AircraftEdlund, Per, Mami, Nihel January 2017 (has links)
Företaget BlackWing Sweden AB tillverkar ultralätta flygplan av kolfiberkomposit. Företaget vision är att tillverka ett flygplan som helt kan drivas av elektricitet med samma prestanda som flygplan drivet av fossila bränslen. För att kunna driva BlackWing flygplanet med hjälp av elektricitet behövs ett batteripaket, elektronikstyrning samt en elmotor. Därför har detta examensarbete ägnats åt att främst undersöka vilka elmotorer och battericeller som är mest lämpade för BlackWing flygplanet. Därefter togs resultatet fram genom beräkningar på battericeller och motorpaket med hjälp av insamlad information om motor-och batteriprestanda. För att få ett mer objektivt och systematiskt resultat här även en Pugh-matris används för att på ett enkelt sätt avgöra den mest lämpliga battericellen. Resultatet av detta arbete visade sig att i dagsläget är batteriet Envia, High Energi Pouch cell (ENV35011-CRC) och Siemens motor DYNADYN® 85 är mest lämpliga för BlackWing flygplanet. / BlackWing Sweden AB manufactures ultralight aircraft made from carbon fibre composite. The company's vision is to produce an aircraft that can be completely powered by electricity with the same performance as the aircraft powered by fossil fuels. To operate the BlackWing aircraft using electricity it will need a battery pack, electronic controls and an electric driveline. Therefore, this thesis has been devoted primarily to study which electric engine and battery cells that would be most suitable for the BlackWing aircraft. The result was produced by calculations of the battery cells and electric driveline by using collected information about driveline and battery performance. To get a more objective and systematic results, a Pugh matrix was used to easily determine the most suitable battery cell. The results of this work showed that in the current situation, the battery Envia High Energy Drone Cell Pouch (ENV35011-CRC) and Siemens engine DYNADYN® 85 are the most suitable for the BlackWing aircraft.

HALO-Based Research Conducted by the LIM: previous Campaigns and Plans for the FutureSchmidt, Jörg, Wendisch, Manfred, Wolf, Kevin, Ehrlich, André, Nitzsche, Gunda 13 November 2017 (has links)
This article gives an overview about the activities of the Leipzig Institute of Meteorology (LIM) within the HALO (High Altitude and Long Range Aircraft) Scientific Priority Program (SPP 1294 funded by DFG). HALO offers unique possibilities for atmospheric research and Earth observations. It can carry a scientific payload of up to 3 t, cover a range of 10000 km and reach a ceiling of 15 km. The LIM contributes to the instrumentation of HALO with the Spectral Modular Airborne Radiation measurement sysTem (SMART). SMART was deployed during the first HALO mission TECHNO in 2010. During subsequent five HALO campaigns SMART measurements provided valuable insights regarding cloud properties and the Earth’s radiative budget. Three further missions, which are scheduled for the coming years, will make use of SMART measurements as well. / Dieser Bericht gibt einen Überblick über die Aktivitäten des Leipziger Instituts für Meteorologie (LIM) im HALO Schwerpunktprogramm (SPP 1294 der DFG). HALO bietet einzigartige Möglichkeiten für die Atmosphärenforschung und Erdbeobachtung. Es kann eine wissenschaftliche Nutzlast von 3 t aufnehmen, eine Reichweite von 10000 km zurücklegen und eine maximale Flughöhe von 15 km erreichen. Das LIM trägt zur Instrumentierung von HALO mit dem Spectral Modular Airborne Radiation measurement sysTem (SMART) bei. SMART wurde 2010 bei der ersten HALO Mission TECHNO eingesetzt. In fünf folgenden HALO Kampagnen verschafften SMART Messungen wertvolle Erkenntnisse bezüglich Wolkeneigenschaften und dem Strahlungsbudget der Erde. Drei weitere HALO Missionen, die für die kommenden Jahre geplant sind, werden ebenfalls SMART nutzen.
