ISR Blackbox Exercise

Part 1: Start jupyter notebook 

For instructions, see https://github.com/isrsummerschool/lecture_supplements_2022

Part 2: Run simulations of the existing Millstone Hill ISR

  • From the jupyter notebook page, choose ISR_blackbox, then ISR_blackbox_existing.ipynb.

  • Choose Cell -> Run All to start the UI.  (The code behind this simulation is available in the jupyter notebook under ISR_blackbox -> ISR_blackbox.py, if you want to check it out later)
  • Choose the Millstone Misa ISR in single pulse 480 microsecond mode.

  • Run for 24 hours during Jan. 1st  using 240 seconds of integration at 90 degrees elevation.

  • Determine how many seconds you can reduce the integration period to and still have less than 10% error at all times at 750 km altitude.

  • Describe what happens when the integration period gets short (1 second).

  • Repeat the second and third steps at an elevation of 4 degrees and a 2000 microsecond pulse and an altitude of 500 km..

Part 3: Build a low power Millstone Hill background ISR

  • From the jupyter notebook page, choose ISR_blackbox, then ISR_blackbox_new.ipynb.

  • Choose Cell -> Run All to start the UI.
