A High-Density GaAs Gate Array Chip Set for a Deep Space Digital Receiver

The Jet Propulsin Laboratory (JPL), a division of the California Institute of Technology, performs research, development, and related activities for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). JPL is NASA's lead center for unmanned exploration of the solar system and beyond.

Detection Performance of Upgraded "Polished Panel" Optical Receiver Concept on the Deep-Space Network's 34 Meter Research Antenna

Initial optical communications experiments with a Vertex polished aluminum panel have been described. The polished panel was mounted on the main reflector of the DSN's research antenna at DSS-13. The PSF was recorded via remotely controlled digital camera mounted on the subreflector structure. Initial PSF generated by Jupiter showed significant tilt error and some mechanical deformation. After upgrades, the PSF improved significantly, leading to much better concentration of light. Communications performance of the initial and upgraded panel structure were compared. After the upgrades, simulated PPM symbol error probability decreased by six orders of magnitude. Work is continuing to demonstrate closed-loop tracking of sources from zenith to horizon, and better characterize communications performance in realistic daytime background environments.

Simulation Results for PCM/PM/NRZ Receivers in Non-Ideal Channels

This paper studies, by computer simulations, the performance of deep space telemetry signals that employ PCM/PM/NRZ modulation technique under the separate and combined effects of an unbalanced data stream, data asymmetry, and band-limited channel. The study is based on measuring the Symbol Error Rate (SER) performance and comparing the results to the theoretical results presented in previous reports [1,2]. Only the effects of imperfect carrier tracking due to an imperfect data stream are considered.

A2.5 THz Receiver Front-End for Spaceborne Application

The OH radical is an important player in known ozone depletion cycles; however, due to its location in the atmosphere, it must be studied from either a balloon or spaceborne platform.
