Abstract

A study of the design, development and fabrication details of a transmitter for a microwave refractometer is presented. Atmospheric, radio frequency, refractive index is to be measured rapidly and directly up to altitudes of the order of 200,000 feet. Requirements for the transmitter with regard to its weight, volume and environment are indeed stringent since it is proposed to package the transmitter in a ogive configuration and elevate it to these altitudes utilizing a rocket propulsion system.
