Collection Information
IDENTIFIER urn:nasa:pds:magellan_bsr_calibrated:sc1::1.0
NAME Magellan Bistatic Radar Calibrated: Sc1 Collection
TYPE Calibration
DESCRIPTION The sc1 collection contains ASCII files of coefficients for polynomials used to adjust the frequency of the directly propagating carrier signal so that it is approximately centered in the 25000 Hz output bandwidth. Each sc1 file covers approximately 16 minutes in (nominally) one second steps and is valid for both RCP and LCP. The sc1 files were created in the 1990's and were reformatted for archive in 2008. File names have the form ydddhhmm.sc1 where 'y' and 'ddd' are the same as for prr files and 'hh' and 'mm' give the start hour and minute, respectively, for the data in each file.
