Rapid sync acquisition system Patent
System designed to reduce time required for obtaining synchronization in data communication with spacecraft utilizing pseudonoise code
Technique minimizes the effects of dropouts on telemetry records
Recorder deficiencies are minimized by using two-channel system to prepare two tapes, each having noise, wow and flutter, and dropout characteristics of channel on which it was made. Processing tapes by computer and combining signals from two channels produce single tape free of dropouts caused by recording process
Digital filter for reducing sampling jitter in digital control systems Patent
Digital filter for reducing jitter in digital control system
Design for a Rapid Automatic Sync Acquisition System
System provides rapid command sync acquisition between widely separated transmitter-receivers. It is based on a rapid, automatic range-adjustment approach rather than the time-consuming cycle slipping or stepping techniques of conventional phase-locked loops
Investigation of temperature and concentration oscillations in the directional solidification of Pb-Sn-Te
Directional solidification of the pseudobinary compound semiconductor material Pb sub 1-x Sn sub x Te by the Bridgman crystal growth process will be studied. Natural convection in the molten sample will be visualized with a novel electrochemical cell technique that employs the solid electrolyte material yttria-stabilized zirconia. Mass transfer by both diffusion and convection will be measured by detecting the motion of oxygen tracer in the liquid. Additional applications for electrochemical cells in semiconductor crystal growth are suggested. Unsteady convection in the melt will also be detected by the appearance of temperature oscillations. The purpose of this study is to experimentally characterize the overstable conditions for a Pb sub 1-x Sn sub x Te melt in the vertical Bridgman crystal growth technique and use a linear analysis to predict the onset of convection for this system
A method for reducing sampling jitter in digital control systems
Digital phase lock loop system is designed by smoothing the proportional control with a low pass filter. This method does not significantly affect the loop dynamics when the smoothing filter bandwidth is wide compared to loop bandwidth
