ROLLS Experiment, Racine,Wisconsin 15 Jan - 15 Feb 2004 |
For 250 ns pulse, single polarization, multi-beam configurations:
H channel: SideUp Beam hhcal1 = 50.0; Down-forward Beam hhcal4 = 56.0 V channel: Down Beam vvcal2 = 47.5; Side-forward Beam vvcal3 = 52.5 H-V channel isolation: > 50 dB For 500 ns pulse subtract 3.5 dB from all the constants.

CLARE experiment, Chilbolton, UK, Oct 1998 (in dB) |
'v' and 'h' notations refer to 2 linear-polarized antennas h-ch is forward looking antenna, v-ch is down looking antenna hhcal = 50.0, vvcal = 49.5 ; for 250 ns pulse hhcal = 46.5, vvcal = 46.0 ; for 500 ns pulse vhiso = hviso better than -40 dB (2 antennas, no OMT, not checked) |
TRAC experiment, Paris, France, Jun 1998 (in dB) |
'v' and 'h' notations refer to 2 linear-polarized antennas, h-ch is forward looking antenna, v-ch is down looking antenna hhcal = 47.0, vvcal = 46.5 (obsolete) vhiso = hviso better than -40 dB (2 antennas, no OMT, not checked) July 1999 was determined that TRAC calibrations were taken with reduces Tx power (no turbo), and additional 2 dB correction is needed. Revised constants are: hhcal = 45.0, vvcal = 44.5 |
