Goldstone high power radiation control

The airspace near Goldstone is shared by many users in carrying out their respective missions. Coordination of Goldstone high power transmitter radiation activity with mutual airspace users near Goldstone is an effective method to prevent aircraft from being exposed to radiation levels greater than 10 mW/sq cm, to allow Goldstone to transmit high power levels for planetary radar experiments and to provide the necessary information to both civil and military aircraft users to enable them to perform their necessary activities.

Goldstone radio spectrum protection

Potential electromagnetic interference to the Goldstone tracking receivers due to neighboring military installations is discussed. Coordination of the military and NASA Goldstone activities in the Mojave Desert area is seen to be an effective method to protect the Goldstone radio spectrum while maintaining compatible operations for the military and Goldstone.
