Abstract
A proposal for a Ka-Band (32 GHz) Link Experiment (KABLE) with the Mars Observer mission has been submitted to NASA, The experiment will rely on the fourth harmonic of the spacecraft X-band transmitter to generate a 33.6 GHz signal. The experiment will rely also on a DSN receiving station equipped to simultaneously receive X- and Ka-band signals, The experiment will accurately measure the spacecraft-to-Earth telecommunication link performance at Ka-band and at X-band (8.4 GHz).
