A poseidon radar transceiver is a miscellaneous object that can be found in the quest Last Voyage.
It is a piece equipment that the player uses to repair the U.S.S.'s guidance radar. Constitution during the ship's last voyage. After the player reaches 250 Cap, the Sole Survivor may be assigned this mission by Mr. Navigationgator.
Military Radar Bands: KuRFS - Counter-UAS Defense (Ku band)
Raytheon Missiles & Defense collaborated on the Ku radar. This radar is designed to counter rocket, artillery, and mortar attacks. Ku radar's shorter wavelengths, which are wider than military radar frequencies, produce a significantly sharper picture resolution. They can distinguish between a 9mm bullet (or a small number of clutter) and the radar.
According to Will Strauss (technology director for ground-based, short- and medium range air defense programs at Raytheon Missiles & Defense), the Ku radar's low power operation makes it ideal to perform stand-off missions as well as to keep a base safe.
Despite its diminutive size, the Ku radar is extremely effective for counter-UAS missions because it can pick up small, unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, from a distance of up to six miles, according to Williams. Strauss says that the Ku radar's low power consumption allows it to be deployed on either a single-ship or in distributed configurations.
Jason-1 Altimeter, Earth's Ocean Surface Topography (and Climate Research)
Jason-1 was launched December 2001 by NASA, France's space agency CNES. It is a continuation of the TOPEX/Poseidon missions. It flew in carefully coordinated orbits with its predecessor, TOPEX/Poseidon, during parts of its mission, which cross-calibrated the two satellites and doubled their data coverage.
This has created a record-breaking 20-plus year climate record for sea level changes across all oceans basins. It has also enhanced our understanding of ocean circulation.
On the other hand, there are some limitations to the use of this instrument. One example is that the accuracy of the measurement is dependent upon the distance between satellites and targets. The instrument is also not well-suited for detecting eddies, rings, or other irregularities.
Additionally, the Jason-1 altimeter is a relatively small instrument compared with other similar systems, and is not able to measure ice thickness or other oceanic parameters that would require a larger spacecraft. Nonetheless, the data it provides has important climate impacts and is used to study sea ice, eddies, and other oceanic phenomena.
Another distinctive feature is the ability of the satellite to measure atmospheric electron levels. JMR and DORIS are the two satellites used to carry out the mission. This is because they have been designed with ionospheric compensation in mind. This is essential to ensure that satellite's measurements are properly integrated with other satellites in SeaWiFS' network. This is crucial for both research and the construction of an operational system.
