Data Set Overview
=================
The Cassini Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) raw complete data
set includes all RPWS telemetry data for the entire Cassini mission.
This data set includes raw telemetry values for each frequency
channel for each sensor for all times during the mission including
the two Venus flybys, the Earth flyby, the Jupiter flyby,
interplanetary cruise, and the entire Saturn tour. Data for this
data set are acquired from the RPWS Low Frequency Receiver (LFR),
Medium Frequency Receiver (MFR), Medium Frequency Digital Receiver
(MFDR) (which can be used to replace MFR band 2 data), High
Frequency Receiver (HFR), Sounder, and Langmuir Probe (LP). Data
are decompressed and internal receiver minipackets are unsegmented.
This data set is intended to preserve the telemetry data and is to
be used only as a last resort. Other RPWS archived data sets are
designed to be complete and more easily used. Browse data sets
associated with the other data sets provide a graphical search of
the data included in this data set. This data set should be the
last used by a user of any of the RPWS archive as it is in the least
user-friendly form.
Parameters
==========
This data set includes all measurements from each sensor, frequency
channel, and time step for which data were acquired by the RPWS.
Processing
==========
Data in this data set were processed by the use of a number of
software programs which assemble segmented mini-packets in the raw
telemetry packets into complete sets and de-compress the data that
were compressed by one of a number of compression algorithms by the
RPWS flight software onboard. Information included in the Software
Users Guide included in the DOCUMENT directory on this volume
provides information necessary to extract and use these data.
Data
====
The data included in this data set are the complete set of RPWS
telemetry.
Ancillary Data
==============
Ancillary data included with this data set collection include a
series of files that describe the modes of the RPWS as a function of
time and provide a time- ordered listing of Instrument Expanded
Block (IEB) trigger commands (the mode by which the RPWS is
reconfigured). Also a detailed description of each of the modes (or
IEBs) is provided.
Other data which are ancillary to this data set but which are
archived separately from this collection are the Navigation and
Ancillary Information Facility's SPICE kernels describing the
position and attitude of Cassini and various solar system bodies as
a function of time.
Coordinate System
=================
The data in this data set are measurements of wave electric and
magnetic fields measured by the RPWS electric and magnetic sensors.
These fields are presented as detected by the sensors and are not
rotated into any other coordinate system. If desired the SPICE
kernels can be used with the SPICE toolkit to convert from the
spacecraft frame to virtually any frame which may be of use in
analyzing these data. However, for many purposes, the wave
amplitudes are extremely useful and may be entirely adequate with no
coordinate transformations at all.
Software
========
No software is provided to be used with this data set.
Media/Format
============
These data are supplied to the Planetary Data System on DVD-R media
using formats and standards of the PDS for such media."
CONFIDENCE_LEVEL_NOTE = "
Confidence Level Overview
=========================
This data set contains all the telemetry data for the Cassini RPWS
instrument for the interval described In the label files for the
individual data files. Every effort has been made to ensure that
all data returned to JPL from the spacecraft are included.
Review
======
The RPWS raw complete data will be reviewed internally by the
Cassini RPWS team prior to release to the PDS. The data set will
also be peer reviewed by the PDS.
Data Coverage and Quality
=========================
All data in the stated interval are included, to the best of our
knowledge and attempts to determine completeness. In general, the
instrument was operated only briefly during early tour for the
following intervals:
1. Antenna deployment 1997-10-25T00:00 - 1997-10-26T05:30
2. Venus 1 flyby 1998-04-26T12:54 - 1998-05-08T19:21*
3. Instrument Checkout 1998-12-30T09:10 - 1999-01-19T05:40
4. Venus 2 flyby 1999-06-24T09:08 - 1999-06-24T21:20
5. Earth flyby 1999-08-13T17:39 - 1999-09-14T22:20
*Actual interval for science data is much shorter than this.
Beginning in February of 2000 the instrument was operated
more-or-less continuously; two gaps of the order of six weeks were
incurred for the purposes of loading new attitude control and
command and data system flight software, gaps of a few days each
were incurred approximately twice per year because of Huygens Probe
testing, and gaps of several days in duration occurred during solar
conjunction periods prior to 2002. Remaining gaps are due to
spacecraft anomaly resolution or simply to downlink gaps, some of
which were imposed by limitations on DSN station availability.
Limitations
===========
One measurement quality issue is occasional elevated noise levels
(by a few to 10 dB) in the second band of the MFR. During tour, it
is anticipated that data from the Waveform Receiver (WFR) sometimes
referred to as the medium frequency digital receiver (MFDR) can be
substituted for these in the full resolution data product (RPWS LOW
RATE FULL).
Beginning approximately with Saturn orbit insertion in early July
2005, the RPWS has shown increasing sensitivity in its electric
field measurements below 2 kHz to interference from the spacecraft
reaction wheels. The wheels are a source of electromagnetic
interference in the magnetic channels at frequencies directly
related to the rotation rate of the wheels due to a residual
magnetic moment in the wheels. This level was predicted before
launch and has been basically constant through flight. However, at
the earliest opportunity to observe the interference of the wheels
on the electric field measurements, there was essentially no
detectable level of interference. However, after orbit insertion,
it became clear with increasing time that the wheels were becoming
an increasing source of interference in the electric field
measurements at about 2 kHz and below. As of late 2005, the
amplitude of this interference is of the order of 30 or 40 dB above
the instrument noise level. The relation of the frequency of the
electric interference to the rotation rate of the wheels is less
direct than for the magnetic interference. There is a general
correspondence, but not in detail. It appears that there are some
frequencies more susceptible to the interference than others and
when the wheel speed approaches these 'resonances', the interference
becomes more visible. A working model for this interference
proposes that radiation effects on some part(s) of the spacecraft,
perhaps the thermal blankets, reduce the conductivity. Small
vibrations of this part(s), then, with some residual differential
charging then result in the electric field interference. This model
is not confirmed and the true explanation of the interference is
unknown, but the effects significantly complicate the interpretation
of the electric field spectrum below 2 kHz.
SCET Miscalculation
===================
Version 1 of CORPWS data
2008-12-28 through 2011-06-30
were processed using invalid SPICE spacecraft clock kernels.
Specifically the SCLKs which spice was asked to convert to SCETs
were outside the valid correlation region. The error was subtle at
first but continued to grow as SCLKs further from the correlated
region were converted to SCETs. The net result was that incorrect
SCET values were placed into the product files and product label
files for these dates. The issue has been corrected and no longer
affects any CORPWS datasets available from the PDS. The following
table lists the maximum SCET errors by date.
