Description
Analog instrumentation recorders may be classified according to bandwidth, operational environment and application. Classification extremes are great and given specifications are subject to differences in importance as well as in numerical value. Performance testing, evaluation techniques and system specifying are vastly different and must be designed for the subject application if results are to be productive. The information presented in the following sections has been derived primarily from tests conducted with broadband recording systems. This effort has been directed toward discussion of new measurement techniques advanced by predetection recording requirements at the Eastern Test Range. The goal of this work is to widen the scope of testing, evaluation and specifying thereby promoting fuller and better understanding of predetection recording systems, their limitations and their capabilities.
