description

This product, 92032_92060.TAB, was released as part of the PDS3 ULY-J-URAP-4-SUMM-WFA-PEAK-E-10MIN-V1.0 data set. This product was originally a partial of the remake of the PDS volume ULY_5001 that was produced for the ESA Special Publication 1230. The metadata have been migrated to PDS4. The data themselves are unchanged.

description

The high band channels (upper 12 frequencies) always contain By. The low band channels (lower 10 frequencies) contain either By or Bz depending on the mode of the instrument. A flag specifying the mode is provided for each time interval. The lowest two frequencies of the WFA are derived in a different manner so they have been left out of the UDS data. This leaves 10 frequencies from the low band and 12 frequencies from the high band. The peak data provided by the WFA high band frequently do not exceed the threshold background so the average values have been used in all cases. The files of peak data were computed by, for all data falling within the 10 minute periods, finding the maximum value for each frequency. The WFA data is affected by interference from other instruments. In particular, interference from the PFR occurs and is dependent on the PFR scan mode. For this reason a flag indicating the PFR mode is provided in the WFA files. Fill value for bad or missing data is -9.99e+10

This column consists of 22 Waveform Analyzer (WFA) peak electric field intensities from 22 frequency channels. These values represent the highest intensities measured over the sampling interval. Below is a list of the center frequency for each channel: F(1): 0.22 Hz F(2): 0.33 Hz F(3): 0.44 Hz F(4): 0.66 Hz F(5): 0.88 Hz F(6): 1.33 Hz F(7): 1.77 Hz F(8): 2.66 Hz F(9): 3.55 Hz F(10): 5.33 Hz F(11): 9.00 Hz F(12): 14.00 Hz F(13): 19.00 Hz F(14): 28.00 Hz F(15): 37.00 Hz F(16): 56.00 Hz F(17): 75.00 Hz F(18): 112.00 Hz F(19): 149.00 Hz F(20): 224.00 Hz F(21): 299.00 Hz F(22): 448.00 Hz
