The Solar Corona Experiment (SCE) investigations utilized radio science instrumentation with elements on the spacecraft and at the DSN. Much of this is shared equipment, being used for routine telecommunications as well as for radio science. The performance and calibration of both the spacecraft and tracking stations directly affect the radio science data accuracy, and they play a major role in determining the quality of the results. The spacecraft part of the radio science instrument is described immediately below. This is followed by a description of the DSN (ground) part of the instrument. Two different types of radio science investigations were conducted with Ulysses. Dual-frequency ranging and Doppler data were collected near solar con... ...Show More
