A short history is given of the development of dual VLF time transmission techniques. The theory of time recovery from the relative phase of the dual frequency transmission is presented. The transmission and receiving requirements for cycle identification and cycle ambiguity resolution are described. Finally, an experiment to test the capability of time transmission of the OMEGA system is proposed
A technique for analyzing the polarization properties of plane waves is developed which offers a number of advantages over methods currently used in the analysis of both ground and satellite observations of waves. This technique reduces the computations required to find the wave normal vector, is less sensitive to common noise sources, and is amenable to analog implementation. This technique is applied specifically to the analysis of a proton whistler, but may also be used in most studies of ULF, ELF, and VLF magnetic wave phenomena.
Results of plasmapause measurements made onboard S cubed A (explorer 45) satellite are presented. Data cover model calculations made to explain the observed probe potential behavior, comparison of satellite data with VLF data to establish that certain effects seen are interpretable as the plasmapause, and plasmapause behavior during the December 17, 1971 magnetic storm.
