Abstract
The Block IV Ranging Demodulator Assembly is a 10-MHz ranging receiver operating on the automatic-gain-controlled output of either a Block III or Block IV DSIF receiver. It demodulates the 10-MHz carrier that has been phase modulated with range code to provide two range correlation voltages to the Planetary Ranging Assembly. The design of the Ranging Demodulator Assembly, which encompasses range code correlation and demodulation of the 10-MHz carrier, is compatible with either composite or sequential range code schemes. Manual control of the Block IV Ranging Demodulator Assembly is straightforward and easy to comprehend, which will serve to minimize operator expense and operator errors. Computer control capability is provided and may be implemented as soon as a suitable interface is developed.
