Abstract
In this article a re-examination of automatic gain control (AGC) calibration errors was made to determine if an improvement in reported spacecraft carrier power could be obtained by modifying the signal level tracking calibration procedure. The calibration errors (as a function of the number of independently obtained calibration points) were evaluated to determine if a new AGC calibration procedure using 15 independent calibration points should be adopted. Results of this study indicate that the improvement in calibration accuracy is insignificant and would not warrant a new calibration procedure requiring considerably more time and effort.
