Abstract

Antenna arraying will be a crucial Deep Space Network technique in maximizing the science return of planetary and comet encounters in the 1980's. This article develops the equations which describe the total figure of merit for a multiple system of arrayed antennas. An example is given for three Canberra DSN antennas and the Parkes 64-m antenna to be arrayed for the Voyager 2 Uranus flyby.
