A PORTABLE SHARING UPPER ATMOSPHERIC SOUNDING SYSTEM USED BY BOTH BALLOON AND MICRO-ROCKET
轻便式气球、火箭高空大气探测共用系统

The requirements of upper atmospheric exploration systems are increasing, but usual receiving and tracking equipment are ponderous and with bad agility, and more and more unsuitable for multi-purpose situation which need more flexibility. A low cost portable upper atmospheric sounding system used by both balloon and micro-rocket is presented, which has much lower ratio of signal to noise and wider bandwidth. The system is composed of a frequency modulated transmitter, upper atmospheric sounding instruments, a wide beam parabolic receiving antenna on the ground, a receiver with low noise and data processing equipment. It is mainly used to receive and process the data from balloons and micro-rockets.
