Readme_for_Test_Data_v2.docx

These test data files are provided as-is, as a courtesy to the potential RFIMS vendors. They are not authorized to be used to contractually verify, validate, or certify equipment performance. The vendors may use them as they see fit. Use of the data files is solely at the discretion of the vendors and the Government assumes no liability for how they are used or the results derived from their use.

The test data are software (MATLAB) simulated data and they simulate the baseband received signal at the NOAA receiver. This data is a time based received signal for a duration of 2 seconds and sampled at the sampling frequency fs= 35 MHz. There are five types of data in the .zip folder:

1- Metop_AHRPT: The simulated signal of Metop AHRPT without noise.

2- POES_GAC: The simulated signal of POES GAC without noise.

3- POES_LAC: The simulated signal of POES LAC without noise.

4- POES_HRPT: The simulated signal of POES HRPT without noise.

5- TEST_ID_3,10,12,15,16,18,54,55,56,57,59,60,62: The simulated signal received at the receiver including signal of interest and the interfering signals in the presence of noise.
