The 9438 high level traveling wave tube amplifier anomaly, volume 1
Abstract
The results of an investigation into orbit failures of HLTWTA on DSCS-II satellite are presented along with recommendation for corrections on future TWTAs to be issued on DSCS-II. The possible causes of these failures are examined in light of orbit data, and laboratory simulation testing.
