Antenna Arraying Techniques in the Deep Space Network |
| JPL Deep-Space Communications and Navigation Series |
| David H. Rogstad; Alexander Mileant; Timothy T. Pham |
| This book provides an introduction to the development and use of antenna arraying in the Deep Space Network (DSN). It compares the various arraying algorithms and techniques by unifying their analyses and then discussing their relative advantages and disadvantages. The five arraying schemes that can be employed in receiving signals from deep-space probes are treated, including full-spectrum combining (FSC), complex-symbol combing (CSC), symbol-stream combining (SSC), baseband combing (BC), and carrier arraying (CA). In addition, sideband aiding (SA) is also included and compared even though it is not an arraying scheme since it employs a single antenna. Combinations of these schemes are also discussed as are complexity versus perfomormance trade-offs, and the benefits of reception of signals from exisiting spacecraft. Â
