Main activities and responsibilities |
Main tasks: § Improve the hardware and software implemented in DSS 61 antenna in MDSCC for PARTNeR project (Front-end, Back-end and M&C maintenance) § Characterizethe back-end and the front-end of the antenna VIL-1 system for CESAR programme (This antenna is located at the European Space and Astronomy Center (ESAC) in Villafranca del Castillo (Madrid). It is involved in Cooperation through Education in Science and Astronomy Research (CESAR) Programme, which has 2 telescopes of 30 and 50 cm to be robotized as well) § Characterize the state of the two optical telescopes to be robotized for CESAR programme § Design some software to control the antenna and the telescopes remotely and locally § Documentation of the systemwith all the antennas software and hardware changes and documentation of the new procedures of use, such as the telescopes documentation. § Coordinate all the works in the antennawith all departments of MDSCC, such as Servo, IT, Operations and RF § Participation in 4 PARTNeR project (Proyecto Académico con el RadioTelescopio de Nasa en Robledo) teacher’s courses, organizing the speeches of some participants and giving some lectures Areas of Specialization: § Concerning the Back-End, experience with microwave switches, ambient loads, diodes, microwave isolators, LNA and downconverters from S and X band. To control some of this B/E devices IOTech Control 488/16 (with GPIB bus)are generally used. § Experience in downlink, as DSS61 antenna uplink was removed and in VIL-1 antenna is not permitted to transmit for our project proposals. § Concerning the Front-End, familiarity with X and S band filters (typically 100 MHz). Signals spectrum analyzer, oscilloscope and power meters (GPIB) are normally used for testing. Use of TCP/IP protocol, GPIB bus and RS232 bus are used for communication. Control for meteo station (RS232), a Time Control Translator (TCT) for timing (RS232), thermometers (GPIB), camera (TCP/IP), and NTP server. |
