ARM MICROCONTROLLER AND EMBEDDED SYSTEMS FOR REMOTE DATA ACQUISITION & CONTROL

Fundamental scientific research in atmospheric and space sciences is being conducted at NARL, Gadanki, by various instruments which are capable of providing parameters about different atmospheric process with very high resolution. Statistical description of atmospheric motions over the earth, their role in transporting the constituents of the atmosphere and the transformation of different forms of energy is studied with sophisticated MST radar system. The 53 MHz MST radar operating from the year 1991 is a prime instrument for atmospheric science research with 32 transmitters powering a 1024 element square grid antenna array.
