Data Analysis of the TK-1G Sounding Rocket Installed with a Satellite Navigation System

Abstract

Abstract:This article gives an in-depth analysis of the experimental data of the TK-1G sounding rocket installed with the satellite navigation system. It turns out that the data acquisition rate of the rocket sonde is high, making the collection of complete trajectory and meteorological data possible. By comparing the rocket sonde measurements with those obtained by virtue of other methods, we find that the rocket sonde can be relatively precise in measuring atmospheric parameters within the scope of 20-60 km above the ground. This establishes the fact that the TK-1G sounding rocket system is effective in detecting near-space atmospheric environment.

Atmospheric Measurements with Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS)

“…Bärfuss et al introduced a flexible UAS for sampling the ABL with sensors for temperature, humidity, 3D wind vector, position, black carbon, irradiance and atmospheric particles [10]. Finally, challenging the original conception of this Special Issue, an interesting consideration for the use of a sounding rocket alternative platform with a satellite navigation system was provided [11]. Such a platform can enable fast and precise meteorological data acquisition of complete trajectories from 20 to 60 km altitude [11].…”

Toward Standard Radiosonde Observations of Waves and the Mean State in the 30–40-km Altitude Range Using 3-kg Balloons

“…obtained from the ground to the height of 30 km. At higher altitudes, rocketsonde observations (20-65 km) were carried out from the 1960s to the 1990s (e.g., Baldwin and Gray 2005), and then intermittently in India and China (Zhou et al 2017;Das et al 2016). The vertical resolution of rocketsonde observation is about 2 km, and it is difficult to capture gravity waves having short vertical wavelength.…”

Design and Construction of a Flight Data Acquisition System Adapted to an Experimental Rocket Model

“…Por su lado, otros trabajos proporcionaron detalles acerca de los elementos que se pueden emplear en un sistema de adquisición de datos, incorporados a cohetes con gran altura de apogeo [5,6], para monitorear variables de vuelo tales como presión, calor, temperatura o deflexión de elementos mecánicos [7]. Del mismo modo, se evidenció el uso de sistemas GPS [8,9], elementos tipo altímetro, sensores para la medición de temperatura, presión atmosférica y aceleración [10].…”
