本文介绍了两个雷达系统的设计和操作开发的冰荚,一个2.5米长的圆柱形传感器外壳,直径60厘米,建立在金属框架与玻璃纤维包。附在LC-130外部的吊舱包含三个隔室,每个隔室直径约60厘米,长45厘米,加上前后的锥体。每个隔室可以容纳各种传感器。输入电源为+28Vdc,由主飞机总线和串联UPS提供。电源经过过滤和分配,以提供给各个传感器。热量通过加热垫提供给传感器和传感器部件,从飞机内部进行监测和控制。该吊舱通过一个手臂连接到纽约空军国民警卫队LC-130的后部队门上,该手臂可以在起飞时升高,在部署时降低。该臂连接到一个门塞,该门塞安装到位于右舷机翼后面的右舷部队门框中。图1显示了安装在飞机上的Icepod。
This paper describes the design and operation of two radar systems developed for the Icepod, a 2.5m long cylindrical sensor housing, 60cm in diameter built on a metal frame clad with fiber-glass. The pod which attaches to the outside of an LC-130 contains three compartments each roughly 60cm diameter by 45cm long plus a cone fore and aft. Each compartment can house a variety of sensors. Input power is +28Vdc provided from the main aircraft bus and an in-line UPS. Power is filtered and divided down for supply to individual sensors. Heat is provided to sensors and sensor components via heating pads, monitored and controlled from inside the aircraft. The pod is connected to the rear troop door of a New York Air National Guard LC-130 by an arm that can be raised for take-off and lowered for deployment. The arm is attached to a door plug that is fitted into the starboard troop door frame located behind the starboard wing. Figure 1 shows the Icepod installed onto the aircraft.
