sisplest to accomplish.

The system is intemted ta accept data frm— seutrca,

gamma-ray, thermal, and X-ray transducers ani transform such data to a fora
suitable for transmission ani recording.

It also is to provide aonitoring of

warhead command fimctions and the high-resolution telemetry systea.

With the exception of radiation effects, couditions surrounding the
Bardtack tests were not greatly different from standard light-missile tesis.
accelerations experienced did not exceed 65 g‘s, and space was sufficient to

utilize standard components.

The effects of radiation were not well under-

stood, but cests during Operation Plumbbob indicated that no great difficulties
sbould be anticipated at the ranges from burst which were planned for the
Program 32 instrument carriers.

Description of System

The system will not be described in great detail, since the techniques
are well known and couponents are commercially available.

Figure 9.€ is a

block diagram of a typical instmomentation rocket installation.

The principal

components in the system are as follows:

(1) Bendix TOE-31 subcarrier oscillators
(2) Bendix TXv-13 transmitter
(3) Rheem REL-09 power amplifier
(4) Carter Magnotor 250 v-250 na
(5) Ni-Cad ZHIO batteries

(6) Sandia-designed, nose-probe antenna
(7) ASCOP cocoutation switch
accuracy of the system was expected to be better than 5 percent from data
input to reduced data.
_ The receiving station was mounted in a 34-foot trailer van and consisted
of standard cocemercial equipment.

(2) ASCOP sulticouplers
(3) Nems-Clarke Model 1400, erystal-coatrolled receivers
(4) Aapex F2 114 cape recorders
