Subject: | NSA/MWR/C1 - Temperature Stabilization of Noise Diode Impaired |
DataStreams: | nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1, nsa5mwravgC1.c1 |
Description: | On 1/17 we had a big spike in the data and lost temperature stabilization. The instrument had problems maintaining the Noise Diode (ND) temperature since. At ambient temperatures under about -20 C the ND was not maintaining the set temperature of 30 C. This problem was reported in P010122.1. Fred Solheim recommended on 1/22 that we powercycle the instrument as it looked like the instrument CPU had lost the temperature reference. So we powercycled the instrument on 1/22 @ 20:30 and lost all comumnication to it; after a second powercycling the instrument came back on line and the temperature stabilized quickly (within a couple of minutes) to the set temperature (30 C) Fred Solheim reported after the system was restored: "I've never seen this behavior before. I don't think it was due to the RF deck physically hanging temperature, because the recorded temp dropped about 30 C in one observation cycle. If this happens again, send the MWR down along with data files for us to look at." Data collected in the periode 1/17/2001 6:00 to 1/22/2001 21:45 are questionable since it is uncertain whether the temperature really was unstable and what really caused the problem. |

Description: | The thicker (1/2-inch) insulation was installed on the RF deck and the reference temperature was reduced from 50 C to 30 C to prevent thermal instability in winter. A change in the mixer temperature affects the instrument's calibration. A new calibration was automatically derived and applied after 1500 valid tip curves were acquired. During the period after the temperature was reset and before the calibration was updated, the previous calibration was used. |

DataStreams: | nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1 |
Description: | A short period of odd data occurs in PWV and the LWP. Its a sudden offset in the data values. Vic Morris suggests it could be a calibration issue as seen before at SGP. Data make a marked change after the events (suggesting the data were questionable prior to this time). No obvious changes in other instruments occur. Some of these effects may coincide with operator's preventive maintenance but others are in the middle of the night local time and can not be explained by cleaning. |

Subject: | SGP/MWR/C1 - Intermittent Negative Sky Brightness Temperatures |
DataStreams: | nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1 |
Description: | Several related and recurring problems with the MWRs have been reported dating back to 1999. These problems were due to the occurrence of blackbody signals (in counts) that were half of those expected. The symptoms included noisy data, spikes in the data, negative brightness temperatures, and apparent loss of serial communication between the computer and the radiometer, which results in a self-termination of the MWR program. Because these all initially appeared to be hardware-related problems, the instrument mentor and site operations personnel (1) repeatedly cleaned and replaced the fiber optic comm. components, (2) swapped radiometers, (3) sent radiometers back to Radiometrics for evaluation (which did not revealed any instrument problems), and (4) reconfigured the computer's operating system. Despite several attempts to isolate and correct it, the problem persisted. It became apparent that some component of the Windows98 configuration conflicted with the DOS-based MWR program or affected the serial port or the contents of the serial port buffer. This problem was finally corrected by upgrading the MWR software with a new Windows-compatible program. |

Description: | The MWR operating program was upgraded to version 3.28 on 3 February 1999. This version includes a beam width correction as well as providing the capability to automatically level the elevation mirror (that is, to automatically detect and correct offsets in the elevation angle stepper motor position.) The improvement in the quality of the tip curves resulting from the auto- leveling has been dramatic: differences in the brightness temperatures at 3 airmasses (19.5 and 160.5 degrees) have been reduced from +/- 5 K to +/- 0.5 K. In order to take full advantage of this improvement to detect and reject cloudy tip curves, the minimum value of the goodness-of-fit coefficient for a valid tip curve has been increased from 0.995 to 0.998. |

Subject: | NSA/MWR/C1 - Software Change |
DataStreams: | nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1, nsamwrtipC1.a1 |
Description: | The MWR operating software was changed on 16 November 1998 to provide additional functionality as described below. This change affects the format of the raw and ingested data. NEW FEATURES 1. Faster sampling rate Standard line-of-sight (LOS) observations can now be acquired at 15-second intervals vs. 20-second intervals previously. (The standard LOS cycle is comprised of one sky sample per blackbody sample and gain update.) 2. More flexible sampling strategy Multiple sky observations can be acquired during a LOS cycle, up to 1024 per gain update. This permits sky samples to be acquired at intervals of 2.67 seconds for improved temporal resolution of cloud liquid water variations and better coordination with the millimeter cloud radar during IOPs. 3. Separation of zenith LOS observations from TIP data When the radiometer is in TIP mode, the zenith LOS observations are now extracted, the PWV and LWP computed and reported separately in the output file. This eliminates the periods of missing LOS data during calibration checks/updates. 4. Automatic self-calibration The software now permits the calibration to be updated at specified intervals or continuously. In the first case, LOS mode is automatically changed to TIP mode at user-specified intervals or whenever clear sky conditions occur, the tip data reduced, the calibration updated, and the radiometer returned to LOS mode without operator intervention. In the second case, the radiometer is continuously is TIP mode until changed by the operator. 5. Graphical user display The graphical display is comprised of a status display, a message display, a temperature plot, a plot of the retrieved PWV and LWP, and (in TIP mode) a plot of the latest tip curves. |

DataStreams: | nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1 |
Description: | The PWV data began exhibiting a pattern of large (~5 cm) spikes which exponetially degrade to normal values. The problem is due to a fault in the serial or fiber optic data communication. This pattern began intermittent occurrence on 4/9/98 but it dominates the data by 5/1/98. |

DataStreams: | nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1 |
Description: | After reinstallation of repaired MWR #20, PWV data began exhibiting a pattern of large (~5 cm) spikes which exponetially degrade to normal values. The problem was due to a fault in the serial or fiber optic data communication. This pattern began intermittant ocurrance on 8/15/98 but it dominates the data by 9/6/98. |
