Malargue and NASA/DSN stations
X-band Catalog was updated in 2014
Ka-band Catalog to be delivered in 2016 (?)
trajectory
Only visible from one DSN baseline for ∆DOR
NASA requested cross-support from both ESA and JAXA
Both ESA and JAXA have agreed to provide ∆DOR cross-support

X-band ∆DOR during cruise has been high quality The HYB2 transponder design motivated the generalization of
“DOR Tone Multiplier” from a ratio of small integers to a decimal number
High accuracy at Ka-band needed for rendezvous phase (2018-
2019)
Processing of 8 MHz channels has been difficult Some consideration required for processing of PN DOR

Entered Mars orbit in September 2014
cruise
32m antenna at Bangalore used for deep space tracking
Measurements made of MOM at S-band from Mars’ orbit
Alternate between Canberra/IDSN and IDSN/Madrid baselines
S/X quasar measurements determined station coordinates to 10 cm
One of Cortex product line of receivers
The receiver output is compatible with RDEF spec
Results indicate good performance
50 MHz (or 100 MHz) IF bandwidth preferred over current 40 MHz

prepare for InSight cross-support
Correlation results are good
Residuals from Navigation Reconstruction show 2 nrad data accuracy (comparable to DSN-DSN)
accuracy
Correlation results are good
Residuals from Navigation Reconstruction show better than 5 nrad data accuracy (meets InSight requirement)
Correlation comparison pending
Navigation validation pending

For compatibility with DSN “Automatic Link Build” Fixes offset between digital downconverter channels Allows decimal representation of DOR Tone multiplier Other minor improvements
Part of all-digital DSN “Common Platform” RF sub-band downconverted and digitized
Same digital IF is fed to both closed-loop and open-loop
processors
Higher open loop data recording rate is possible

NNO-CEB with Madrid co-observing
MLG-Goldstone-Canberra
Canberra-Usuda
4 (2 MHz) channels: +1st DOR, +2nd DOR, Carrier, -1st DOR
6 (8 MHz) channels: +1st DOR, +2nd DOR, Carrier, -1st DOR, +3rd Subcarrier, - 2nd DOR
Could use 2 MHz channels rather than 8 MHz ?
6 (2 MHz) channels: +1st DOR, +2nd DOR, Carrier, -1st DOR, +3rd Subcarrier, - 2nd DOR
This plan must be used when the same Canberra pass supports a MLG- Goldstone-Canberra DDOR and a Canberra-Usuda DDOR

DDOR engineer downloads CCSDS Service Request from ESA, JAXA
Naming conventions are checked
Frequency plan is stored separately on WVSR
ConfigId is set to specify WVSR frequency plan to be used
CCSDS format Service Request is translated to internal format used by DSN and uploaded to another SPS directory
For (legacy) InSight, separate DDOR input is provided to project sequence team

Routinely being used for exchange with ISRO and JAXA
Setup for exchange with ESA not yet complete
