ISIS-1 Topside Sounder Average Ionogram over Ottawa, QC, Canada: OTT, Latitude 45, Longitude 284

This Ionogram was digitized from the original ISIS 1 Analog Telemetry Data on 7-Track Tape using the Facilities of the Data Evaluation Laboratory at NASA GSFC, Code 500. This Data Restoration Project is headed by Dr. R.F. Benson, NASA GSFC, Code 692. Ionograms were digitized at the Rate of 40,000 16-bit samples/s. This Sample Rate is higher than the Nyquist Frequency of 30 kHz. The Sample Frequency of 40 kHz provides a Measurement every 25 ms corresponding to an Apparent Range Interval of c*t/2, where c is the Speed of Light, or 3.747 km. Each Ionogram consists of a Fixed Frequency Portion and a Swept Frequency Portion. The Time Resolution is typically 29 s.
