ACTS aeronautical terminal experiment: System description and link analysis

During the summer of 1994, the performance of an experimental mobile satellite communication system was demonstrated to the industry and government representatives by the NASA Lewis Research Center (LeRC) and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). The system was based on the Advanced Communications Technology Satellite (ACTS) and consisted of an K-/Ka-band active MMIC phased array antenna system, ACTS Mobile Terminal (AMT) and Link Evaluation Terminal (LET). A LeRC research aircraft, Learjet Model 25, was outfitted with the active MMIC phased array antenna system and AMT and served as the experimental 20/30 Ghz aeronautical terminal. The LET at LeRC in Cleveland, OH was interfaced with portions of fixed-AMT equipment and together provided the gateway station functions including ACTS satellite interface and Public Service Telephone Network (PSTN) interface. The ACTS was operated in its Microwave Switch Matrix (MSM) mode with a spot beam for the Learjet and another spot beam dedicated to the LET. The Learjet was flown over several major cities across the US and demonstrated the feasibility of full-duplex compressed voice link for an aeronautical terminal through the 20/30 Ghz ACTS satellite channel. This paper will present a technical description of the system including the MMIC phased array antenna system, AMT, Learjet, LET and ACTS satellite. The array antenna system consists of a 30 Ghz transmit array (LeRC/Texas Instruments) and two 20 Ghz receive arrays (USAF Rome Lab/Boeing and Martin Marietta), each one very small with sufficient performance for satellite voice link. The AMT consists of 2.4/4.8/9.6 Kbps voice coder/decoder, modem, PSTN interface and RF/IF converters. Link analysis will be presented and compared to the actual performance data collected during the demonstration flights.

Penetration Electric Fields and Inner Magnetosphere Dynamics: A Model and Data Comparison

The initial substorm interval to be studied has been selected to be the magnetic storm of June 4, 1991, and following. The CRRES electric and magnetic field data has been processed. We have added DMSP ion drift and energetic particle data and further refined the CRRES data for intercomparison. The DMSP data increase the frequency of monitoring of the temporal response of the penetration electric fields to every 100 min. Energy is seen to flow between the ionosphere and magnetosphere at low L values during the main phase of the magnetic storm in the form of field-aligned Poynting flux. This indicates electrodynamic coupling of the regions with Alfven waves. The first comparisons of the data with outputs of the Rice Magnetospheric Specification Model (MSM) were made. Both positive and negative correlation were seen as might be expected. Differences were especially evident in the time constants of the processes. Comparisons with the more physically self-consistent Rice Convection Model (RCM) with both electric fields and particle data are in progress to suggest physical constraints for our understanding of the phenomena.

Influence of Hot Carrier Transport on the Transient Response of an InGaAs/InAlAs Metal-Semiconductor Schottky Diode Structure

The calculated transient characteristic of a heterostructure, rectifying contact is theoretically examined. It is found that hot carrier transport drastically affects the output terminal characteristics of the heterostructure Schottky contact and, hence, the working of a blocking contact. This is of importance to the understanding of InGaAs MSM devices in particular, as well as any structure which contains a blocking contact in general.

Theoretical Study of Response of InGaAs Metal-Semiconductor-Metal Photodetectors

We present a theoretical investigation of the response of metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetectors made of InGaAs lattice-matched to InP using a two-dimensional drift-diffusion model with a thermionic-field emission boundary condition for the heterojunctions. The effect of including a top InAlAs layer to increase the effective barrier height of the metal fingers on the InGaAs active layer is thoroughly examined and found to limit the collection of the photocurrent signal due to the electron and hole barriers that it forms with InGaAs. Due to the thickness and height of the InAlAs barrier layer in existing designs, the tunneling current obtained from the model is found to be negligibly small to significantly affect the output signal current. In an attempt to obtain a better response, different design structures including one where a quasi-Schottky contact is utilized are studied and their speed of response, breakdown voltage, and dark current are compared to that of the usual InGaAs device.

Chandra X-Ray Observatory's Radiation Environment and the AP-8/AE-8 Model

The Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) was launched on July 23, 1999 and reached its final orbit on August 7, 1999. The CXO is in a highly elliptical orbit, approximately 140,000 km x 10,000 km, and has a period of roughly 63.5 hours (approx. 2.6 days). It transits the Earth's Van Allen belts once per orbit during which no science observations can be performed due to the high radiation environment. The Chandra X-ray Observatory Center (CXC) currently uses the National Space Science Data Center's "near Earth" AP-8/AE-8 radiation belt model to predict the start and end times of passage through the radiation belts. However, our scheduling software only uses a simple dipole model of the Earth's magnetic field. The resulting B, L magnet coordinates, do not always give sufficiently accurate predictions of the start and end times of transit of the Van Allen belts. We show this by comparing to the data from Chandra's on-board radiation monitor, the EPHIN (Electron, Proton, Helium Instrument particle detector) instrument. We present evidence that demonstrates this mis- of the radiation belts as well as data that also demonstrate the significant variability of one radiation belt transit to the next as experienced by the CXO. We present an explanation for why the dipole implementation of the AP-8/AE-8 gives inaccurate results. We are also investigating use of the Magnetospheric Specification and Forecast Model (MSM) - a model that also accounts for radiation belt variability and geometry.

ACTS Ka-Band Earth Stations: Technology, Performance, and Lessons Learned

The Advanced Communications Technology Satellite (ACTS) Project invested heavily in prototype Ka-band satellite ground terminals to conduct an experiments program with the ACTS satellite. The ACTS experiment's program proposed to validate Ka-band satellite and ground station technology. demonstrate future telecommunication services. demonstrate commercial viability and market acceptability of these new services, evaluate system networking and processing technology, and characterize Ka-band propagation effects, including development of techniques to mitigate signal fading. This paper will present a summary of the fixed ground terminals developed by the NASA Glenn Research Center and its industry partners, emphasizing the technology and performance of the terminals (Part 1) and the lessons learned throughout their six year operation including the inclined orbit phase of operations (Full Report). An overview of the Ka-band technology and components developed for the ACTS ground stations is presented. Next. the performance of the ground station technology and its evolution during the ACTS campaign are discussed to illustrate the technical tradeoffs made during the program and highlight technical advances by industry to support the ACTS experiments program and terminal operations. Finally. lessons learned during development and operation of the user terminals are discussed for consideration of commercial adoption into future Ka-band systems. The fixed ground stations used for experiments by government, academic, and commercial entities used reflector based offset-fed antenna systems ranging in size from 0.35m to 3.4m antenna diameter. Gateway earth stations included two systems, referred to as the NASA Ground Station (NGS) and the Link Evaluation Terminal (LET). The NGS provides tracking, telemetry, and control (TT&C) and Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) network control functions. The LET supports technology verification and high data rate experiments. The ground stations successfully demonstrated many services and applications at Ka-band in three different modes of operation: circuit switched TDMA using the satellite on-board processor, satellite switched SS-TDMA applications using the on-board Microwave Switch Matrix (MSM), and conventional transponder (bent-pipe) operation. Data rates ranged from 4.8 kbps up to 622 Mbps. Experiments included: 1) low rate (4.8- 1 00's kbps) remote data acquisition and control using small earth stations, 2) moderate rate (1-45 Mbps) experiments included full duplex voice and video conferencing and both full duplex and asymmetric data rate protocol and network evaluation using mid-size ground stations, and 3) link characterization experiments and high data rate (155-622 Mbps) terrestrial and satellite interoperability application experiments conducted by a consortium of experimenters using the large transportable ground stations.

Fabrication of a novel gigabit/second free-space optical interconnect - photodetector characterization and testing and system development

The time when computing power is limited by the copper wire inherent in the computer system and not the speed of the microprocessor is rapidly approaching. With constant advances in computer technology, many researchers believe that in only a few years, optical interconnects will begin to replace copper wires in your Central Processing Unit (CPU). On a more macroscopic scale, the telecommunications industry has already made the switch to optical data transmission as, to date, fiber optic technology is the only reasonable method of reliable, long range data transmission. Within the span of a decade, we will see optical technologies move from the macroscopic world of the telecommunications industry to the microscopic world of the computer chip. Already, the communications industry is marketing commercially available optical links to connect two personal computers, thereby eliminating the need for standard and comparatively slow wired and wireless Ethernet transfers and greatly increasing the distance the computers can be separated. As processing demands continue to increase, the realm of optical communications will continue to move closer to the microprocessor and quite possibly onto the microprocessor itself. A day may come when copper connections are used only to supply power, not transfer data. This summer s work marks some of the beginning stages of a 5 to 10 year, long-term research project to create and study a free-space, 1 Gigabit/sec optical interconnect. The research will result in a novel fabricated, chip-to-chip interconnect consisting of a Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) Diode linked through free space to a Metal- Semiconductor-Metal (MSM) Photodetector with the possible integration of microlenses for signal focusing and Micro-Electromechanical Systems (MEMS) devices for optical signal steering. The advantages, disadvantages, and practicality of incorporating flip-chip mounting technologies will also be addressed. My work began with the design and construction of a test setup for the experiment and then appropriate characterization of the test system. Specifically, I am involved in the characterization of a commercially available 1550nm wavelength, 5mW diode laser and a study of its modulation bandwidth. Commercially produced photodetectors as well as the incorporation of microwave technology, in the form of RF input and output, are used in the characterization procedure. The next stage involves the use of a probe station and network analyzer to characterize and test a series of photodetectors fabricated on a 2 inch, Indium Gallium Arsenide (InGaAs) wafer in the Branch s microlithography lab. Other project responsibilities include, but are not limited to the incorporation of a transimpedance amplifier to the photodetector circuit; a study of VCSEL technology; bit error rate analysis of an optical interconnect system; and analysis of free space divergence of the VCSEL, optical path length of the interconnect; and any other pertinent optical properties of the one gigabit per second interconnect for fabrication and testing.

GPM Mission's Best Practices: PERP

Similar to other missions, the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Core Observatory's Command and Data Handling (C&DH) subsystem is critical for operations of the spacecraft. The onboard C&DH system comprises of two fully redundant boxes - a primary and a cold backup. Within each box, amongst other components, is a Single Board Computer (SBC) that hosts the flight software (FSW) system. In the event of an SBC reset, the Flight Operations Team (FOT) is poised with a lengthy task of restoring the SBC to nominal configuration. Due to the complexity of the C&DH system, this may take many days at a time to complete. The spacecraft's FSW applications are located in Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) and are copied into Random Access Memory (RAM) upon SBC initialization/reset. Each SBC has two banks of EEPROM, with each bank containing a copy of the FSW. Since launch, there have been many configuration changes to tables and applications that have been loaded into just RAM. Unfortunately, these changes are vulnerable to being wiped during a SBC initialization/reset, when the RAM is overwritten by the EEPROM. Although the EEPROM loads the default FSW configurations, the process to command non-default individual table and application changes is very cumbersome and time consuming. This consequentially increases the time until the spacecraft is back into nominal Mission Science Mode (MSM) drastically. The GPM Power-On Reset (POR) Expedited Recovery Process (PERP) Design introduces a method of consolidating commands into a single file load which the SBC can process independently of the ground - decreasing recovery time, the level of TDRS support reliance, and human error. This tested design can be implemented across many other missions that utilize a similar core Flight Executive (cFE) platform; hence providing an easy-to-follow, safe, and efficient process that can be applied across the board.

Aperture, A Large Telescope Using Magnetostriction For Post Deployment Corrections: Final Technical Report of NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) Phase I

In summary, astronomical as well as Earth observing applications of the future are counting on larger aperture telescopes than are currently available. Several groups have been working on the topic of enabling large (about 16-m diameter) UV-Vis telescopes for many years. The unique feature of our concept is that magnetic films are used rather than electrostatic films or piezo-electrostatic pads. Our magnetic film concept allows for contiguous correction along the surface, does not require a hard wire connection, and does not require continuous external application of the field. There are many unknowns related to the initial accuracy of the deployed figure prior to the magnetic write head corrections. The length scale over which the corrections need to be applied is also of concern. For, although approximately mm length scale corrections can be made with the MSM plus write head technology, the number of 1 mm² patches in a 16 m diameter mirror is too large to contemplate applying individual corrections to each individual patch. However, deployment strategies and the materials available continue to evolve, in particular shape memory composites (SMCs) [34] or alloys (SMAs) [41], such that at this time we see no show-stoppers for this concept. Furthermore, the ability to tune deformations down to much (factors of 10-100) smaller (m) scale opens the futuristic possibility of improving the figure well beyond Strehl values of 90%.

Further Development Of Aperture: A Precise Extremely Large Reflective Telescope Using Re-Configurable Elements: NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) - Phase II

One of the pressing needs for space ultraviolet-visible astronomy is a design to allow larger mirrors than the James Webb Space Telescope primary. The diameter of the rocket fairing limits the mirror diameter such that all future missions calling for mirrors up to 16 meters in diameter or larger will require a mirror that is deployed post-launch. In response to the deployment requirement, we address the issues of this concept called "A Precise Extremely Large Reflective Telescope Using Reconfigurable Elements (APERTURE) with both hardware experiments and software simulations... We designed and built several fixtures with O-rings to hold a membrane. We established a coating process to make a membrane that was coated on one side with Cr and the other side with Cr-Terfenol-D-NiCo. The Terfenol-D (T-D hereafter) is the MSM (Magnetic Smart Memory) we use. We bought and established a procedure for measuring a deformation over time and purchased a Shack Hartmann system from Imagine Optic (https://www.imagine-optic.com). The first substrate we used was DuPont (TM) Kapton® polyimide film. Due to material creep, we found the stability over a 48-hour period with a Kapton substrate was not as good as desired (greater than 1 micron). We then switched to CP1 Polyimide. We found the CP1 much more stable to creep, being stable from about 3 hours to 48 hours to within a measurement error to below approximately 0.1 micron. We produced a 13 micron maximum deviation on a 50-millimeter-diameter piece of CP1 (25 microns thick). The T-D coating was about 2 microns, and the other layers, about 10 nanometers. The magnetic field at the base was about 0.1 teslas. We can make the T-D film at least 5 times thicker and the magnetic field at least 5 times stronger, and hence make deformations as much as 25 times larger. We have a formed a collaboration produced at the NIAC (NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts) mid-term review with Dr. Ron Shiri of Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) to explore making controlled deviations on lambda/14-lambda/20 scales which are required to bring a surface to the diffraction limit. We carried out only preliminary work on Si using a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM), which produced deviations on the 1 micron level. We are still working on a program to bring to GSFC a flat enough (radius of curvature greater than 10 microns) -coated a Si piece with Cr, T-D, NiCo. Then we plan to carry out tests with an interferometer. Further, we formed a new collaboration with Prof. Rajan Vaidyanathan of the University of Central Florida to replace the CP1 with a shape memory alloy (SMA). With his collaboration, we acquired new Federal funding outside of NASA to explore the use of SMAs (we use NiTi). Our preliminary results indicate that we can produce deformations greater than 1 micron on approximately 100 microns thick. Furthermore we have shown that the NiTi can deploy to better than 1 micron of its set original and then trained shape.

Alignment and Verification Testing of the GPS LRA Test Bed

The LRCTF (Laser Ranging Characterization and Test Facility) is a unique facility built at NASA GSFC to provide thermal-optical testing of the next generation GPS LRA (Global Positioning Satellite’s Laser Retroreflector Array) laser ranging target. The 400mm diameter target is an array consisting of 48 total internal reflection retroreflectors and has an optical cross section requirement of 100 MSM (million square meters). To verify that the array meets this requirement during on-orbit conditions, the LRCTF is equipped with a 400mm test beam, a data product output consisting of full aperture FFDPs (Far Field Diffraction Patterns) and a thermal chamber. The FFDPs are used to calculate the OCS. This paper will describe the facility design, alignment approach, and verification process.

The Future of in-Situ Sequencing-Based Microbial Monitoring: Development of a Shelf-Stable Method for Artemis and Beyond

Microbial monitoring onboard the International Space Station (ISS) is essential for assessing the efficiency of the Environmental Control and Life Support Systems (ECLSS) and providing insight into potential risk to both crew and spacecraft. Historically, this monitoring required the need to culture organisms onboard, return these cultures to Earth, and then complete the identifications, a process that would take months. Over the past decade, and through numerous payloads, advances in molecular biology have enabled in-flight microbial identifications using nanopore sequencing. The swab-to-sequencer method resulting from these efforts was transitioned from research to operations for microbial monitoring under the Crew Health Care Systems (CHeCS) BioMole. Collectively, these accomplishments have propelled the swab-to-sequencer method to be selected as the Microbial Surface Monitor (MSM) for Gateway, as well as a payload on Artemis IV. However, the lack of cold stowage availability for Artemis requires modifications to the entire method due to the thermal instability of the reagents required for sample preparation. To achieve this, new development, optimization, and validations were undertaken. Key considerations included enzyme concentration, buffer compatibility, and equal or enhanced sensitivity and specificity. At each step, thorough side-by-side comparisons with the current ISS method were performed. The development of a robust shelf-stable method will ensure continued sequencing-based microbial monitoring for Artemis and beyond, providing data in near real-time, enhancing risk response time, and yielding clear insight into the microbiome of spacecraft.

LaserSnake2: Remote High Powered Laser Cutting in Confined Hazardous Spaces - 16161

LaserSnake2, a UK collaborative project, seeks to deliver remotely operated cutting techniques into high hazard nuclear environments. This paper describes the developments and results of combining proven robotic manipulators with high-powered laser cutting tools, to allow for selective dismantling within complex nuclear process cells. Decommissioning old and poorly catalogued nuclear plant is a problem faced the world over. Designed with little consideration for decommissioning, or adapted significantly from the original drawings, legacy plant and infrastructure is full of spaces where it is undesirable or impossible to send people. Typically, a process cell or cave will require modification to ensure suitability for human entry or deployment of heavy duty equipment to complete the decontamination processes. The process of widening access routes, or selectively moving sections of highly contaminated material, is ideally suited to remote handling technology. The results of TWI's research into fibre-delivered laser cutting techniques, and integration with a dexterous snake-arm robot, are presented. Coupled with novel laser process head design and diffractive optical elements, the result is an integrated system capable of cutting up to 100 mm thick C-Mn steel plate at significant stand-off distances, encompassing the range of infrastructure found in a typical nuclear plant. Two options have been considered for deployment of the laser cutting tool. The first is focused on a fixed installation using a standard industrial robot. The second is a large, highly flexible snake-arm robot capable of entering cluttered cells through existing penetrations. Designed to operate through a standard 11'' MSM port, the 4.5 m snake-arm robot has the capacity to carry grippers, sensors or the laser cutting tool at the tip. The snake-arm is sealed and housed within a glove box for contamination control, allowing operation within a radioactive environment. Significant technical developments and material research are presented which have led to improved operational life, payload and bend. This paper describes the series of inactive trials which have been conducted to demonstrate the LaserSnake2 system's capabilities. These include: horizontal and vertical deployment, underwater operation, object manipulation and laser cutting. With global nuclear decommissioning costs running in to the $trillions, safe and cost efficient tools such as the LaserSnake2 system are essential as part of the decommissioning toolbox. Remote handling can account for up to 20% of a decommissioning project's costs, however significant time and financial savings can be made by utilising this new technology to reduce operator exposure and reach previously inaccessible areas.

Adaptive changes in sexual behavior in the high–risk population in response to human monkeypox transmission in Canada can help control the outbreak: Insights from a two–group, two–route epidemic model

Monkeypox, a zoonotic disease, is emerging as a potential sexually transmitted infection/disease, with underlying transmission mechanisms still unclear. We devised a risk-structured, compartmental model, incorporating sexual behavior dynamics. We compared different strategies targeting the high-risk population: a scenario of control policies geared toward the use of condoms and/or sexual abstinence (robust control strategy) with risk compensation behavior change, and a scenario of control strategies with behavior change in response to the doubling rate (adaptive control strategy). Monkeypox's basic reproduction number is 1.464, 0.0066, and 1.461 in the high-risk, low-risk, and total populations, respectively, with the high-risk group being the major driver of monkeypox spread. Policies imposing condom use or sexual abstinence need to achieve a 35% minimum compliance rate to stop further transmission, while a combination of both can curb the spread with 10% compliance to abstinence and 25% to condom use. With risk compensation, the only option is to impose sexual abstinence by at least 35%. Adaptive control is more effective than robust control where the daily sexual contact number is reduced proportionally and remains constant thereafter, shortening the time to epidemic peak, lowering its size, facilitating disease attenuation, and playing a key role in controlling the current outbreak.

Boosting the External Quantum Efficiency of AlGaN-Based Metal–Semiconductor–Metal Ultraviolet Photodiodes by Electrode Geometry Variation

Fast aluminum-gallium-nitride–based metal–semiconductor–metal ultraviolet photodiodes were successfully designed, fabricated, and characterized using conventional photolithography techniques. Various electrode geometries were fabricated to investigate the influence of metal contact shapes on the device performance indices with emphasis on the response speed and bias-voltage–independent efficiency. Furthermore, based on the independently measured Hall mobility and electric field, we evaluated the carrier transit time of the devices as 1.31 ps with bias-voltage–independent external quantum efficiency of 1198% in photoconductive mode at 19.5 V and 70% at 60 V for n -doped and intrinsic devices, respectively.
