| Zusammenfassung |
| We present the development considerations and design for ground-based
instrumentation that is being deployed on the East Antarctic Plateau along a
40° magnetic meridian chain to investigate interhemispheric
magnetically conjugate geomagnetic coupling and other space-weather-related
phenomena. The stations are magnetically conjugate to geomagnetic stations
along the west coast of Greenland. The autonomous adaptive low-power
instrument platforms being deployed in the Antarctic are designed to operate
unattended in remote locations for at least 5 years. They utilize solar power
and AGM storage batteries for power, two-way Iridium satellite communication
for data acquisition and program/operation modification, support fluxgate and
induction magnetometers as well as a dual-frequency GPS receiver and a high-frequency
(HF) radio experiment. Size and weight considerations are considered to enable
deployment by a small team using small aircraft. Considerable experience has
been gained in the development and deployment of remote polar instrumentation
that is reflected in the present generation of instrumentation discussed
here. We conclude with the lessons learned from our experience in the design,
deployment and operation of remote polar instrumentation. |
