NOAA-N Changes • On April 28, a new Preprocessor and 1b format was implemented • Code Modified to Incorporate • New MHS Code • Field of View (FOV) size change for HIRS • HIRS calibration and format changed • AMSU-A calibration and format changed • AVHRR format changed • Other 1b/1b* format changes
NOAA-N Changes • MHS/MIU Issues • MHS and AMSU-B Differences • Channels Frequency are Similar • Channels with different frequency • H2 and 17 • H5 and 20 • Number of warm target PRTs • MHS has 5 • AMSU-B has 7 • Different Algorithms for Calibration • 1b/1b* format similar
NOAA-N Changes • MHS/MIU Issues • Understanding different modes • Nominal modes • Non-nominal modes • MIU nominal modes • MIU non-nominal modes • Accommodating different modes • Set flag for Nominal and Non-Nominal modes • Operational nominal modes 99% of time
NOAA-N Changes • HIRS Issues • Field of View Size Change for HIRS • HIRS/4 10KM FOV compared to HIRS/3 20KM FOV • Users may need to change software, especially where co-location with other sensors such as AVHRR • Patch Temperature changed from 100 to 95K • Added a 5th Internal Warm Target temperature sensor and third telescope temperature sensor • Added extra bit to the electronic serial number in the Digital A data stream Element 63 Bits 40-44 • Software change • Bits redefined in 1b
NOAA-N Changes • HIRS Issues (Cont.) • Software Correction for the Operational HIRS Lunar Intrusion detection • HIRS Calibration Algorithm Version 4.0 • New algorithm introduced to replacement old operational HIRS calibration algorithm
NOAA-N Changes • AMSU-A Issues • Correction of Lunar contamination • Required minor change to 1b format • Header and Data record • Plan to move detection to Earth location Software • Correction for sudden jumps in the calibration counts (NOAA-17 Channel 3 anomaly) • Required minor change to 1b format • Header and Data record
NOAA-N Changes • AVHRR Issues • Change to AVHRR Scaling Factors for some of the AVHRR nonlinear radiance coefficients • IR Operational/Test Cal Channel 4 coefficient 3 • IR Operational/Test Cal channel 5 Coefficient 3
NOAA-N Changes • New Telemetry File • File contains telemetry that is not contained in instrument 1b • Will be useful for MIU data when in Non-nominal modes • All telemetry data will now be archived • File uses AIP 1a file format
Additional Preprocessor Enhancement • Incorporation of CLAVR-X flags to AVHRR 1bs • Prototype and timing tests complete
New Data Processing Platform • On April 28, Moved Preprocessing System from Amdahl Enterprise Server to IBM p655 (AIX Distributed Scalable Power processor(SP)) • Improved Processing Speed • Reduced Processing Cost
Advanced Front End Processor (AFEP) Implementation (Phase 1) • Reason for change • Current Front End Processor (FEP) is out dated • Need to Allow Ingest of Metop CCSDS data (Phase 2) • Acceptance testing with user community was suspended due to interface problems encountered with Satellite Operations Control Center(SOCC) systems • Internal testing and system modifications are underway • Will resume testing with user community once modifications and internal testing are completed • Plan to transition to AFEP soon after
Move to New Facility • IPD will move to new NOAA Satellite Operations Facility (NSOF) • Scheduled to begin moving equipment August time frame • Scheduled to begin moving staff October time frame • Plan to complete transition by January • No interruption to service planned
Schemes for Improved Data Timeliness • Blind Orbit Support for KLM series • OSD is investigating avenues for obtaining blind orbits for KLM series of satellites
