What’s new about AMISR? First incoherent scatter radar built by NSF First U. S. incoherent scatter radar built for basic research First phased-array, solid-state incoherent scatter radar First incoherent scatter radar with no moving parts First relocatable incoherent scatter radar First reconfigurable incoherent scatter radar

Arecibo Three-face AMISR Millstone Fixed Millstone Steerable Sondrestrom/EISCAT Single-face AMISR 16-panel AMISR

The Advanced Modular Incoherent Scatter Radar (AMISR) Parts List Antenna Element Unit (AEU) pieces Solid-State Power Amplifier pieces AMISR panel 384 pieces AMISR Faces 3 pieces AMISR Support Structures 3 pieces = 384 Panel Control Boards

AMISR Status AMISR support structure at Poker Flat. 32 panels on route to Alaska for installation in second half of October. Interference testing with Clear AFB personnel to be conducted in November. AMISR prototype at Jicamarca, Peru. Eight panels undergoing tests and being used for scientific studies. Can detect coherent echoes from equatorial electrojet. AMISR prototype at Gakona, Alaska. Sixteen panels undergoing tests and being used for scientific studies. Can detect backscatter from heater induced irregularities and recently observed incoherent scatter returns from 400 km altitude.

Full AMISR face at Poker Flat Begin Poker Flat ops and testing Assemble two faces at Resolute Bay Test AMISR at Resolute Bay Begin Resolute Bay operations Begin construction of Resolute Bay support structure First 32 panels at Poker Flat AMISR Completion Schedule Begin mfg. of AEUs for Resolute Bay Ship panels and AEUs to Resolute Bay
