「のぞみ」 の地球スイングバイ 日本の最初の火星探査機「のぞみ」 を2つの地球スイングバイの間の期間で観測した。
VLBI Observations NOZOMI was Japanese first Mars mission lunched Its orbit plan was changed due to some problems. And eventually, it went to Mars with two Earth swing-by. During these two swing-bys, a request for supporting with VLBI was arose. Because they are afraid loosing R&RR data during that period, since the high gain antenna of the SC faced to the the instead of the Earth. I will talk here about the experiments at the end of May and beginning of June. The NOZOMI was approaching to the earth for the second swing-by at these time.

有限距離の電波源に対するVLBI 遅延モデル
X Y S B X Y RX0 K I will introduce the formulation of delay model of Finite distance radio source, briefly here. Delay of Normal VLBI is expressed by solar products of source vector and baseline vector. Corresponding one for finite distance radio source can be expressed in the same form, if we used a pseudo source vector defined by this way. This was proposed by Fukushima in Based on this form, we made a coordinates transformation in terms of general relativity. (Fukuhisma 1993 A&A)

有限距離電波現に対する 相対論的VLBI遅延モデル
コンセンサス モデル (M.Eubanks 1991) 有限距離 VLBIモデル (Sekido & Fukushima 2004) Obtained formula is quite similar with the Consensus model but different at some terms.

Thanks to GSFC/NASA group for permission to use that. Observables are derived by software correlator. Then residual of O-C was analyised by least square fitting of parameters.

群遅延の場合(Post-fit 解析残差)
~100 nano sec. quasor This is an example of post fit residual of least square analysis with group delay and delay rate. The delay residual are distributed in the same order of the closure of dela, as you see. ~1MHz (frq.) 飛翔体の信号

位相遅延量 Phase delay is also another approach to get high angular resolution even with short baselines. A correlation software to extract phase delay with main carrier signal was developed. The signal to noise ratio was much improved since only frequency around the main carrier is used. Fringe phase was extracted with high SNR. Since the SC was observed for a long time without switching, we could connect phase delay without ambiguity in this case. Closure of the phase delay was taken to see the accuracy of observable. This is a plot of time span of about 3 and half hours. The drifting parts of phase are due to known problem of recording or processing. Please ignore that. The closure delay is distributing quite uniformly in flat line. This indicates phase delay observable is extracted correctly and its precision is about a few tens of pico seconds.

Group Delay (Range signal)
Closure Observation mode = 2MHz, 2bit Accuracy of delay observables is shown by closure delay in this panel. The range signal from space craft is moderated and spread in range of a few MHz. So group delay can be determined. But the precision of the delay is in the order of several tens of nano seconds. There is space for improvement of delay accuracy. Actually, JPL group are doing DDOR in order of nano seconds. In anyway, the delay resolution is much worse than usual geodetic VLBI using quasors. So long baseline is important if you use group delay for spacecraft navigation.

Spacecraft Navigation with VLBI : Motivation
Required for increased accuracy for future space missions: For landing, orbiting, & saving energy JPL/NASA has been employed Japanese Space Agency (ISAS+NASDA=JAXA) NOZOMI(Japanese Mars Explorer) Needs to support orbit determination with VLBI. Mission as our own Project This sort of VLBI application is now new as you know. JPL/NASA is using it from 1980s. But only NASA is doing that today. Japanese Space Agency want to use for their future space missions. So we started collaboration with them. There was a request of VLBI support for NOZOMI, especially. I will talk about it in next slide. And we put it one of mission our own project.

By using these phase delay observables, we can estimate SC coordinates. The total amount of ambiguity is not known but it can was estimated with clock offset of each stations. The residual is distributing in order

VLBI for Finite distance radio source A New VLBI delay Model corresponding to the CONSENSUS model. Narrow band width signal Group delay or Phase delay Delay Resolution: (nano/pico seconds) Ambiguity problem Data Processing and Analysis software IP-sampler boards recording to HD Software correlation & Analysis software For astrometric analysis of SC coordinates, tasks to be done are making a formulation of observation equation corresponding to the consensus model. The signal from SC is not so wide as that of quasar. The delay resolution is up to oder of nano seconds in case of group delay. To increase the the resolution, we can use phase delay. But we need to solve ambiguity for that. For this analysis we developed a software correlator and own analysis software.

SC coordinate solutiion with Group Delay (Domestic Baselines)
This is preliminary result of radio source coordinates in celestial sphere estimated with Japanese domestic baselines. The reason of the Algonquin baseline is not included will be shown later. The origin of this plot is the coordinates of the SC orbit determined by R&RR measurements by ISAS. The SC is moving rather rapidly since it is near the earth and approaching. Our results are almost consistent with OD of ISAS and JPL within the formal error. But the error bar is in order of arc seconds because of low delay resolution and using Japanese domestic baselines. Origin is determined orbit with R&RR
