Measurements and Calibration of Tropospheric Delay at Goldstone from the Cassini Media Calibration System

Tanner, A.; Keihm, S. J.; Rosenberger, H.

One and one-half years of near-continuous measurements of the troposphere-induced path delay at Goldstone have been analyzed in order to (1) characterize the troposphere-delay fluctuations in a statistical sense and (2) evaluate the path-delay calibration performance of the Media Calibration System (MCS) at DSS 25. Both the wet and dry components …
