Abstract

As part of an effort to reduce the DSN transmitter backpower at DSS 14, an adjustable S-band waveguide tuner for use at 400 kW has been developed. The tuner will be used to improve the match of the transmitter waveguide to the antenna feed system at DSS 14 in an effort to reduce transmitter back power at certain operating frequencies caused by high voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) in the feed.
