4 Overview of Radio Plasma Imager (RPI) RPI transmits coded EM waves and receives echoes at 3 kHz to 3 MHz –Uses advanced digital processing techniques (pulse compression & spectral integration) RPI uses a tri-axial orthogonal antenna system –500 meter tip-to-tip X and Y axis dipole antennas –20 meters tip-to-tip Z axis dipole antenna –X axis antennas are used for transmissions –Echo reception on all three Basic RPI measurements of an echo at a selected frequency –Amplitude –Time delay (distance or range from target) –Direction of arrival –Wave polarization (ordinary or extra-ordinary) –Doppler Spectrum In situ density and resonances measurements
