Scheduling
- With VieVS Satellite scheduling tool, by A. Hellerschmied
- quasar block scheduled automatically
- APOD scans manually scheduled
- Schedule summary: 318d_sum.txt
- Block of 4 strong quasars was observed before and after APOD scans
- Min scan duration set to 40 sec
- Sub-netting deactivated
- See catalog files for full setup
- 1 sec time gap in VEX files between APOD scans
- Continuous tracking and recording
- Min. 5 min time gap before after sat. scans to load antenna control files
Observation
- Observers: Jamie, Lucia
- Comments: This time we use the AzEl data as provided by Jing directly. Tracking went well. Wrong frequencies during quasar tracking in Ke. Only last quasar should have correct freqs. Overhead track at Yg. Signal in x-band was pulsing, then at 20 deg hard pulsing. Lost the signal right as scheduled. However, the slewing took longer than scheduled, came back 16 sec late.
Tracking
-
- Azel values directly taken from tracking files provided by J. Sun
- Station equipment controlled with station dependent VEX files
Correlation
Available files
Files are available on the VieVS server (vievs.hg.tuwien.ac.at, user: sorts) at /home/sorts/apod/2016/
- Azel tracking files for Ke, Yg
- VEX file (station depended and combined)
- VIE_SCHED files
- used control + catalog files
- predicted WGS84 state vectors (1 sec interval, by J. Sun)
- predicted AzEl posititons (1 sec interval, by J. Sun)
