Abstract

This article describes the Network Operations Plan for Viking 1975 and includes some DSN support requirements unique to Viking which have resulted in unusual attention to Deep Space Station hardware failure mode configurations. Also discussed are samples of the single point failure strategies incorporated in the Viking 1975 Deep Space Station telemetry hardware configurations. The rationale for the implementation of 100-kW transmitter capability at DSSs 43 and 63 is also given.
