+ Summary o! t e &rogre"" o! t e %or,his report co ers the first 1( months of the 43year 'reparatory 'hase project for the %ISC/ 9$facility, %urope:s next3generation radar for the study of the high3latitude atmosphere and geospace,located in northern Scandina ia.

1.1 Context and objectiveshe high3latitude atmosphere and ionosphere are critically important for the study of Solar3errestrial relationships as well as the physical processes and the coupling of the different altituderegions in the %arth atmosphere. he /rctic areas of 8orthern %urope pro ide a uni;ue opportunityto obser e this region from the ground with instruments placed within a well3de elopedinfrastructure of obser ational facilities and research institutions. %ISC/ 9$ will be a world3leading international 6esearch Infrastructure, using the incoherent scatter techni;ue to study theatmosphere in the Scandina ian /rctic and to in estigate how the %arth:s atmosphere is coupled tospace. %ISC/ 9$ will pro ide an ad anced tool for studying plasma physics phenomena in theatmosphere, a key atmospheric monitoring instrument for climate and space weather studies and anessential element in international global multi3instrument campaigns for studying the en ironment.%ISC/9$ will consist of se eral phased3array antenna sites for transmission of high3power radiowa es and reception of faint signals back3scattered by charged particles in the atmosphere.2easuring and analysing the radio signal accurately probes the composition and physical parameters of the upper atmosphere. %ach antenna array will consist of a large number of singleantennas whose indi idual signals are digitally manipulated and combined to pro ide a cutting3edgeatmospheric radar system. his will enable new types of olumetric imaging obser ations, multi3static obser ations, detailed studies on small scales, and ;uasi3continuous obser ations of the upperatmosphere. In order to reach the measurement objecti es the radar will be distributed o er se eralsites in 8orthern Scandina ia. he flexibility of the new instrument re;uires new measurementstrategies and opens the radar obser ations to an expanding user community.%ISC/ 9$ will contribute to the growing field of research based on accumulating, handling andanalysing large data olumes for %arth system studies. he fully working array will produce a datarate of se eral <=s and the expected stored data olume in the initial phase of operation will be ofthe order of 1+++ < per year. %xploitation of its full potential re;uires collaboration with regionale3infrastructures and close connection to global e3infrastructures for the en ironment.%ISC/ Scientific /ssociation is the Coordinator of the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase project.%ISC/ is currently funded and operated by research councils of 8orway, Sweden, 5inland, >apan,China and the nited ?ingdom and has its head;uarters in ?iruna, Sweden. It runs a radar systemon S albard and a system on the 8orthern Scandina ian mainland consisting of a main transmittingand recei ing radar site in roms@, 8orway, and recei ing sites in SodankylA, 5inland, and ?iruna,Sweden. he latter mainland system, that has successfully been producing incoherent scatter datafor more than $+ years, will be replaced by the new %ISC/ 9$ system. he %ISC/ hostinstitutions acti ely participate in the project.he current 'reparatory 'hase, that started in ctober !+1+, aims to ensure that the project willreach a sufficient le el of maturity so that the implementation of %ISC/ 9$ can beginimmediately after its conclusion in September !+14.

,




1.2 Work performed and main resultshe 'reparatory 'hase is concerned with forming a consortium, procuring the financing, selectingthe sites, preparing for the data handling, considering the scientific re;uirements and planning

construction and operation. 5or all these tasks researchers and other stakeholders are in ol ed. he project acti ely in ol es the scientific user community and all rele ant documents can be found onthe project website Bwww.eiscat$d.se, the major fraction being open to the public.%ISC/ Scientific /ssociation will pro ide the basis for the future %ISC/ 9$ consortium. hecurrent %ISC/ /ssociates ha e stated their support for the new %ISC/ 9$ . / letter of intent inorder to support the %ISC/ 9$ project was fixed by the Council in ctober !+11, to be signed bythe current %ISC/ /ssociates and possibly also by potential new members of the association.%ISC/ Council has formed a working group together with the project to negotiate a newconsortium agreement for the %ISC/ /ssociation that should be more suitable for constructingand operating %ISC/ 9$ and for attracting new members. 'rocedures will also be implementedwithin the research infrastructure to safeguard good scientific practice and to ensure thecommitment to excellent research.o procure the finances, major in estments will be needed from se eral countries. he currentestimate of costs for %ISC/ 9$ that assumes a total budget of 1!+ 2D to be in ested o er # E( years, needs to be confirmed based on detailed planning and site selection. ser groups in 8orway, Sweden and >apan are currently planning to submit proposals during the coming year forin estment into %ISC/ 9$ . he 5innish user community plans submitting a proposal in theautumn of !+1! to include %ISC/ 9$ in the national roadmap for research infrastructures.5unding situations in China and the nited ?ingdom are currently explored. Se eral other countriesare either acti ely pursuing research based on %ISC/ measurements or planning to do so in thenear future. hese are <elgium, Fermany, Ireland, Italy, 'oland, 6ussia and kraine. Some of thesecountries currently consider possible future participation in the %ISC/9$ consortium. heoutreach acti ities of the project, conference presentations by the project participants and the%ISC/9$ project meetings are particularly important in this context.he site selection makes progress, though the re;uirements for site location ary for the differentmeasurement objecti es and need to be balanced. he project has also realised that site selectionwould not only be based on scientific considerations. he site sur eys, that are carried out by the project, in estigate the radio en ironment as well as the local infrastructure conditions. hese cannot be made during the /rctic winter which constrains the schedule to the summer. /llocations forthe fre;uency range of the %ISC/ 9$ system were obtained in 8orway, but not in 5inland andSweden. 'rogress in fre;uency allocation can be made as soon as the sites are selected and the first

construction funding for the project is granted.'lanning for the data handling co ers issues ranging from the direct connection of radar sites to theinternet to the maintenance of the data and its placement within the framework of internationalgeospace obser atories and en ironmental research infrastructures. Some of the "ork 'ackagesrelated to data handling and data management ha e not formally started yet, since they for instancere;uire knowledge of the detailed instrument performance and the radar sites. 8onetheless, somemore general issues of data handling can be addressed by using the current %ISC/ data and thisapproach is currently pursued. 'reparatory work is also carried out in the frame of other projects.%ISC/ , as Coordinator of the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase, participates in consortia funded bythe %uropean nion through 5ramework 'rogramme &) %876I is related to the common needs of%S56I projects in terms of data handling, storage and management. %S'/S will facilitate useraccess to space weather data from ground3based and satellite experiments. C '% S that is

/




currently under negotiation will facilitate collaboration with S en ironmental research institutionsfor common data policies and standards rele ant to global research infrastructures in theen ironment field.he scientific re;uirements ha e a major influence on the system design and for this a Science Caseis continuously re ised in collaboration with the present %ISC/ user community and with prospecti e future users. Communication with the scientific user community is facilitated throughoutreach acti ities, conference presentations and a series of dedicated meetings organiGed by the project. he website for %ISC/ 9$ has been online since 2arch !++0 and is regularly maintainedand updated. / user account system on the website was introduced at the beginning of the projectand facilitates the close connection of the project to the community. he project sets a high priorityon expanding the user base into the space weather and middle atmosphere communities, which ha enot been major users of %ISC/ in the past. 8onetheless, discussions also showed that in order to prepare competiti e proposals to the national funding bodies it is important to clearly state the primary objecti es of the project and to emphasise the key scientific issues that focus on those

measurement capabilities of %ISC/ 9$ that are uni;ue) the capability of continuous obser ations,of both small and large scale obser ations and the flexibility of changing the modes in order todirectly respond to obser ed phenomena.'lanning the construction and operation of the new system re;uires a detailed instrument design.he design planning is based on a pre ious esign Study Bfunded within 5'- and on the longexperience with the existing %ISC/ radars. he project also aims to make use of inno ati etheoretical studies in signal processing, radar coding, data handling and data analysis. his recent progress is summarised in a handbook of measurement principles, whose initial ersion was prepared during the first months of the 'reparatory 'hase for consideration during the planning. henew instrument will carry out signal processing using Software3 efined 6adio BS 6 recei ersystems. he hardware needed for the field3testing of the planned signal processing de elopmenthas been ac;uired. In order to produce designs of antennas, array layout, recei er front end andcalibration systems suitable for manufacturing, antenna elements were identified and an antennaarray layout was recommended. 5or designing and e aluating the %ISC/ 9$ radar transmittersubsystem, a prototype $3channel exciter has been successfully tested at the >icamarca radar facilityin 'eru. In order to use the aperture synthesis imaging radar techni;ue with the new instrument,simulations for optimal recei ing outlier configuration were carried out and completed. / simpledouble triangular configuration was suggested as a result of this work. "hile work on specifictechnical tasks makes good progress, the results still need to be combined within an instrumentdesign.he project faces a wide range of expectations from researchers and other stakeholders. serexpectations are in some cases contradictory, ranging from the desire to ha e a new systemworkable as ;uickly as possible to the desire to design the system in a sophisticated way based onthe results of mathematically rigorous considerations. Combined with some gaps in the technicalwork that was proposed in the original project plan and with a deficiency in a ailable engineeringworkforce at the project Coordinator, this has delayed the preparation of the instrument performance specification. his delay of a eli erable in the project has an impact on some of thetechnical "ork 'ackages and imposes uncertainties on budget and experiment description neededfor the consortium negotiations. he project Coordinator approaches this problem with anadditional recruitment planned for 2ay !+1! and continued efforts to communicate with the usercommunity. 5urther recruitments are en isioned for the autumn !+1!. ther delays of 2ilestonesand eli erables ha e less impact on the work plan. elayed starts of some of the "ork 'ackagesha e also re;uired minor changes in the project planning that will be compensated by an intensified

6




acti ity later in the project. he project benefits from its location within a network of well3de eloped obser ational facilities and research institutions that are ery supporti e of the project. /tthe same time they ha e different expectations that ha e to be met in a way so that all stakeholdersare satisfied. o meet this challenge the project Coordinator benefits from exchange of experience,

networking and training on managing international research infrastructures that is offered by projects within the 5ramework 'rogramme &. Swedish 6esearch Council supports the de elopmentof the project with a & 2S%? planning grant for !+1! and !+1$ from its funding programme forresearch infrastructures. / major fraction of this funding is planned for negotiations andorganisational preparation of the project.

1.3 Expected final resultshe goal of the 'reparatory 'hase is to bring the %ISC/ Scientific /ssociation in the position to

begin implementing the new infrastructure in !+14. "hile not all of the eli erables of the projectha e yet been deli ered on time, the reasons for delays ha e been identified and measures ha e been taken to compensate for these delays so that there is confidence within the project that the%ISC/9$ 'reparatory 'hase will end successfully. 6egional and national enterprises from a widerange of industrial sectors are expected to participate in building the new system. he projectexpects that the %ISC/ 9$ data will be managed in collaboration with the local e3infrastructure inthe 8ordic countries. he 6esearch Infrastructure will be connected to uni ersities and researchinstitutions locally in 8orthern Scandina ia close to the sites, and globally through the members ofthe association and the international research community. %ISC/ 9$ will also pro ide youngresearchers and engineers the opportunity to gain experience in the maintenance and handling ofhuge data olumes and will introduce young scientists to en ironmental research on internationallycompetiti e le el.

%ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase is a 43year project that started on 1 ctober !+1+. his reportsummarises the acti ities in the first 1( months of the project.

2.1 Project objectives for the first reportin period he objecti e of the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase is to carry out all of the acti ities re;uired

before the project can enter the Implementation 'hase. he actions during the 'reparatory 'hase areaimed at organising the project legally and logistically, and facilitating the closure of any technicalissues left open after the 5'- esign Study. he work plan of the 'reparatory 'hase lists the tasksthat are needed to reach these objecti es.

2.2 Work pro ress and achievements durin the period his section lists the progress of the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase in the different "ork 'ackagesduring the first 1( months of the project.

-.-.+ /or, Pac,age +: Project management and re&orting/ detailed account of the acti ities of the project management B"ork 'ackage 1 is presented inSection!.$. In addition, this "ork 'ackage has been responsible for establishing the echnical/d isory Committee B /C , a monitoring body for the technical execution of the %ISC/ 9$

Pro ress

he acti ities in "ork 'ackage ! started at the beginning of the project, and will continue untilSeptember !+1$.ask !.1 B5re;uency allocations ) 5re;uency allocations for %ISC/ 9$ ha e been obtained in

8orway, but presently not in 5inland and Sweden. Jowe er, it turned out that a change in thestrategy for obtaining fre;uency allocations was needed compared to what was stated in the original

+




work plan. Since the negotiations in ol e simultaneous discussions with agencies from threecountries, they need to be performed on a le el which lies beyond the scope of the %ISC/ 9$'reparatory 'hase and will thus take place outside the project. his also means that eli erable !.1BSigned agreements on fre;uency allocations will not be deli ered, and 2ilestone !.1 B iscussions

on fre;uency allocations concluded and permissions obtained will not be reached inside the%ISC/9$ 'reparatory 'hase project, since the negotiations will take place elsewhere.ask !.! B5inalising the site selection ) Interactions with the 6esearch Councils ha e re ealed thatthe project should understand that decisions on site selection may not purely be based on scientificconsiderations. hus the project has started preparing a short list of sites that are suitable both froma scientific and an infrastructural point of iew, to present to the 6esearch Councils as basis fornegotiations. Such a list is currently under preparation at %ISC/ and roms@ ni ersity. Somesur ey acti ities ha e been made for all sites presently on that list. Jowe er, the site sur eys cannot be done in winter conditions and all re;uired measurements on the sites were not finished beforectober !+11 ha e to be made during the summer of !+1! instead. his means that eli erable !.!

B6eport listing the preferred sites and 2ilestone !.! B8ew site sur eys completed and selected sitesidentified ha e to be shifted one year, so that all the needed measurements and sur eying acti itiescan be performed.asks !.$ B iscussions with site stakeholders , !.4 B/ccess to infrastructure , !.# BSite de elopmentcosts ) /lthough detailed work on these tasks would be premature, some contacts with potentialstakeholders are already established and a first e aluation of existing infrastructure at the sites thatare under consideration has already been made with the present site sur ey data.

!i nificant results

5rom a scientific point of iew, it is ad isable that the core transmitting radar site would be locatedwithin roughly 1++ km from a point at about -0K 8orth and !+.#K %ast, which is close to theintersection of the Swedish, 8orwegian and 5innish borders. his location is suitable for the studyof atmospheric phenomena appearing east of the Scandina ian mountain range at low altitude, andalso for high altitude obser ations together with supporting optical instruments re;uiring clear skiesthanks to the fa ourable cloud co er statistics compared to more westerly locations. he site sur eyhas considered sites within this area as well as se eral sites in other areas that could potentiallyser e as recei ing sites for such a transmitter at this location.

"eviations from the #ork plan

eli erable !.1, that was due at the end of month - will not be deli ered as part of the %ISC/ 9$'reparatory 'hase project due to the change in the strategy for obtaining fre;uency allocations asdiscussed abo e. Similarly, 2ilestone !.1 will also not be inside the project.eli erable !.! and 2ilestone !.! will be delayed one year, because the site sur ey acti ities canonly be performed during the summer, and not all the needed measurements were made in thesummer of !+11.

$ailures in reachin critical objectives

he delays and changes in the work plan described abo e will not ha e a significant impact on therest of the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase.

%se of resources

he delay in the completion of the site sur ey acti ities means that some of the effort planned forthis period will take place at a later point in the project.

Corrective actions

he fre;uency allocation discussions will take place outside the 'reparatory 'hase project, and willthus not be part of this "ork 'ackage. he site sur eys will continue also in the summer of !+1!.

-.-.1 /or, Pac,age 1: Science &lanning and u"er engagementhe aim for "ork 'ackage $ is to formulate the Science Case for %ISC/ 9$ and to increase theuser base of the future %ISC/ 9$ facility beyond the existing %ISC/ user community. / key part of this acti ity is to gather the re;uirements from the prospecti e users of the system, and the

different types of new experiments that they would like to run. hese re;uirements are then fed intothe design and the implementation of the new infrastructure. hus, this "ork 'ackage co ersgathering these re;uirements, continuous updating of the Science Case and its tensioning against thecapabilities of the new radar as they become progressi ely more well3defined.he acti ities in "ork 'ackage $ are coordinated by the ni ersity of ulu through a Science"orking Froup with a rolling membership base.

Pro ress

"ork 'ackage $ started at the beginning of the project, and the acti ities continue until 4- months

into the project.ask $.1) B5orm a Science "orking Froup and identify suitable contacts ) he first task of this"ork 'ackage was to organise the work of the Science "orking Froup, consisting of a changinggroup of existing %ISC/ users and scientists wishing to use %ISC/ 9$ for new applications infields neighbouring to the areas of the present system. In its first iteration, the Science "orkingFroup was composed of se en scientists Bincluding the "'$ leader and co3leader , with emphasison atmospheric science applications of %ISC/9$ . he Science "orking Froup had two meetingsin the first half of !+11 where the science ;uestions that could be addressed by %ISC/ 9$ werediscussed. ne of the tasks the Science "orking Froup performed was to assemble acomprehensi e list of contacts in prospecti e new %ISC/ 9$ user communities. he seconditeration of the Science "orking Froup also contains se en scientists, with emphasis on spaceweather and modelling issues, and their first meeting took place in >anuary !+1!.ask $.! BInitial re isions of science plan and performance specification ) he first ersion of theScience Case document has been prepared. 7aluable input to the production of the Science Casecame from the Science "orking Froup.ask $.$ B6egular re iews of the Science Case and feedback to software and hardwarede elopment ) he Science Case is a li ing document that is e ol ing o er time. / table of%ISC/ 9$ radar performance re;uirements by science topics was compiled and is included as anappendix in the Science Case. his table is useful in the preparation of the 'erformanceSpecification ocument in "ork 'ackage -.

ask $.4 B ser engagement workshops ) / workshop for members of the middle and loweratmosphere community was organised through "ork 'ackage $ in 2ay !+11, where the goals wereto promote interaction with existing %ISC/ users, to identify common science themes and to planfuture research acti ities.

ask $.# B5inal Science Case with user community re;uirements will be performed at a later pointin the project as an extension of ask $.$.In addition to these acti ities, %ISC/ 9$ has been presented at se eral conferences and meetingas part of the user engagement acti ities.

!i nificant results

he initial ersion of the Science Case document has been prepared, and was deli ered in >une!+11.he first user engagement workshop was held in ppsala in 2ay !+11, and a second workshop is

planned for 2ay !+1!.wo Science "orking Froups ha e been formed, and they ha e been acti e in the science planningacti ities for the new system.


here are no significant de iations from the work plan.


/ll critical objecti es of this "ork 'ackage ha e been reached at this point of the project.

%se of resources

/t this point in time, the spending is a little below the budgeted amount. * has used person3months approximately as planned in this "ork 'ackage while S 5C=6/* has used somewhat fewer person3months than planned at this stage due to other commitments such acti ities in "ork'ackage 1. hese are minor de iations in the budget, and they can be corrected later in the project.

Corrective actions

8o correcti e actions are needed, and the work in "ork 'ackage $ will continue as planned.

-.-.2 /or, Pac,age 2: Outreac acti#itie"he purpose of "ork 'ackage 4 is for the project to acti ely participate in outreach acti ities to

pro ide information for the general public, opinion3formers, funding organisations, students andyoung people Bthe next generation of %ISC/ users . his is done by making presentations atrele ant meeting and conferences, by producing sets of outreach material intended for a ariety oftarget audiences, and by maintaining an updated project web3site.he outreach acti ities in this "ork 'ackage are coordinated by %ISC/ Scientific /ssociation.

ask -.1 BCollate performance specification information from 5'- esign Study ) In this task the performance specification from the 5'- esign study was re isited, taking findings and ideas which

ha e emerged since the end of the esign Study into account, in order to generate an initial'erformance Specification ocument B eli erable -.1 . Some findings were not e aluated properlyat that time, so it was too early to modify the performance specification of the 5'- study. hedescription of this eli erable re;uires that it should include an o er iew of the performancespecification and the re;uired reliability for all hardware elements. Jowe er, the project, ad ised bythe chair of the echnical /d isory Committee, decided that this document should pro ide astructure listing all the items that need to be co ered in the detailed %ngineering 'erformanceSpecification ocument, a document that needs to be established at the beginning of the%ISC/ 9$ Construction 'hase. hus, during the 'reparatory 'hase, eli erable -.1 will ser e asa guideline for the ;uestions to be answered by work performed in the technical "ork 'ackages.ask -.!

Calculations ha e been carried out in order to find theoretically optimalsolutions for the design of recei er3transmitter array configurations with the goal to pro ide the best possible performance for a gi en cost. he initial handbook also pro ides a numerical algorithm toestimate the measurement capabilities that can be achie ed with a certain geometric configurationof transmitting and recei ing sites. he handbook will be further expanded and iterated during the project.ask -.$ B ngoing re ision of performance specification ) he third task of this "ork 'ackage is toupdate and maintain the 'erformance Specification ocument to pro ide a basis from which todefine the targets of the technical "ork 'ackages. In order to do this, the results from ask -.!should specifically be incorporated, as well as the demands from the science community throughthe Science Case. /n ongoing discussion in the project is how some of the results from ask -.!could be included in the performance specification while at the same time ensure that the instrumentcould realistically be ready for construction at the end of the 'reparatory 'hase. he ambition in thehandbook is to utilise digital signal processing to a large extent with the ultimate goal of ha ing afully digital radar system Bi.e. a software radar . /nother suggestion in the handbook is to use alocally bi3static configuration at the central core site, that is a system where the radio transmissionand reception are done with separate antenna arrays, which potentially could enhance the system performance. In theory, such a configuration bears some definite ad antages in comparison to thecon entional set3up of incoherent scatter radars, where the same antennas are used for transmissionand reception. he options for such a locally bi3static solution ha e been discussed intensely and the project came to the solution that at the current point, the technical difficulties that would arise fromsuch a set3up can not be fully estimated. /s a result, the project currently follows a combinedapproach. he baseline core configuration will consist of a mono3static transmitting=recei ing arraythat will make use of the design effort that is currently undertaken in "ork 'ackage 0 and will inaddition comprise an array of antennas that are only designed for reception that will be used toin estigate the performance of the locally bi3static configuration. Similarly the transition from acon entional radar system to a fully digital software radar is a critical step. It ultimately re;uiresdata handling and storage capabilities that are not a ailable or not affordable at this point, but may

1/




become so in the years to come. /lso in this case the current design will be kept flexible in order toallow for a transition to a software radar system when it is fully a ailable. hese considerations will be summarised in the integrated performance specification document B eli erable -.$ that will be prepared before the summer of !+1!.

!i nificant results

he initial 'erformance Specification ocument has been produced, to be used as a guideline forwhich ;uestions need to be answered by work performed in the technical "ork 'ackages.he first ersion of the handbook of measurement principles has been produced, and will pro ideinput into the further de elopment of the performance specification.In order to facilitate the smooth progress of the other "ork 'ackages a group of technical expertshas suggested that the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase project should continue based on thetechnical design of an initial performance specification which still permits modifications to take theresults from the theoretical studies into account.


In contrast to the original work plan, eli erable -.1 does not include an initial performancespecification, but rather the draft of the future %ngineering 'lan. his document thus defines which;uestions the technical "ork 'ackages need to answer.eli erable -.$ is presently delayed by - months, because the initial handbook of measurement

principles B eli erable -.! suggests two significant changes in the performance specificationcompared to the plans in the 5'- esign Study. 2aking such changes in ol es taking large risks

and this has generated li ely discussions within the project. <ecause other "ork 'ackages rely onthe performance specification, it was decided to formulate the performance specification so that theoption for incorporating the ideas in the handbook is still open. hese discussions, combined with alack of engineering workforce able to work in the project from the Coordinator side, are the reasonsfor this delay.


he 'erformance Specification ocument is delayed, but the impact on the other "ork 'ackageswill be kept small if the work here progresses smoothly during the coming months. his wouldensure that the technical "ork 'ackages recei e the performance specification that they need to

continue their planned work.

ask (.$ B%lectric and mechanical front end design ) he task of designing the electric andmechanical front end to the updated system re;uirements, in terms of operating fre;uency, bandwidth, dynamic range, noise figure, calibration methods and return loss re;uirements, has hadto be delayed due to the delay in the production of the 'erformance Specification ocument. he

work in this task has in the meantime commenced with the selection of components. /n importantstep in this process is the characterisation of components in the rele ant fre;uency range. 5or this purpose, a specialised test en ironment has been designed and is now being built.ask (.4 BCalibration ) In estigation of timing and antenna calibrations is also an acti ity in "ork'ackage (. he work in this task has been performed in two areas. 5irstly, in the /rcticen ironment, where the antenna arrays will be located, the phase of the far3field radiation patternmight change due to seasonal snow co er. ne way to mitigate this effect is to install a systemcapable of measuring the position and time delay of a recei ed signal through each of the indi idualantenna elements. In estigations ha e shown significant potential in this approach if sufficientlysimple antennas are used. Jowe er, the amount of additional infrastructure re;uired for this

approach makes this a less desirable option. hus, this is not at the present considered for the finalarray, although the option should be kept in mind for future upgrades of the system. 5or calibration purposes, the current plan is instead to rely on celestial radio sources and existing radar targetscurrently in orbit. Secondly, the relati e phase of all recei ers must be precisely known. 5or this purpose, a time distribution system, as the one built by 8ational Instruments, is considered in the project. 5rom the performance of the current ersion of this system, we estimate that the system can be operated using this system alone, but that augmenting it with an additional system may yieldnon3negligible performance impro ements. he work in ask (.4 has therefore proceeded with athorough e aluation of the calibration system that was produced as a prototype for the 5'-%ISC/9$ esign Study project. he e aluation shows that the performance that can be achie edwith this system will fulfil the demands on calibration, including the signal path from the antenna

through cabling and /= con erter. he final inclusion of this system in the finished %ISC/ 9$radar is howe er subject to the e aluation of achie ed performance when using time distributiononly.

!i nificant results

<ased on the preliminary performance specifications, the recommended antenna elements arefolded dipoles with reflectors. 8o local measurement system should be built initially, but the option should be kept for the future.he refined calibration system, as built in the %ISC/ 9$ 5'- esign Study, does meet the

re;uirements for %ISC/ 9$ .


here are delays in some of the tasks in this "ork 'ackage, following from the delay in the production of the 'erformance Specification ocument in "ork 'ackage -. "ithout thisspecification, it is not possible to finalise the initial antenna elements and antenna arrayconfiguration, and it will thus potentially delay the production of the prototype antennas used fortesting. Similarly, the electrical and mechanical front3end design is also dependent on the performance specification.

19




/nother factor in the progress of "ork 'ackage ( is that an * staff member originally workingon the project has left * . Jis position has howe er at the writing of this report already beenreplaced with one senior professor working as expert guidance, and one engineer to do antennadesign. "ith this set3up, a highly producti e continuation of this "ork 'ackage is foreseen.


he specification of the antenna elements and the antenna array configuration is not completed dueto delays in the production of the 'erformance Specification ocument in "ork 'ackage -. hegreatest impact of this delay will be in "ork 'ackage 14, where the mass production and reliabilityissues are addressed.

!i nificant results

here are as yet no significant results in this "ork 'ackage.


he work in this "ork 'ackage has started much slower than anticipated. his is partly due to the%ISC/ staffing situation at SodankylA, where these acti ities take place, which has changed morethan what was expected when the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase started. /t the same time,unplanned work was needed on the old %ISC/ J5 system, and this work had to be performedusing time originally planned for %ISC/ 9$ acti ities. he impact on other "ork 'ackages fromthe slow start is minimal at the moment, but in order to pro ide the expected eli erables the workspeed has to increase in the coming year.


/t this time in the project there has not been any critical objecti es in the work plan for this "ork'ackage.

%se of resources

he main work in this "ork 'ackage has not really started yet. / representati e of "ork'ackage 1! has been attending project meetings, though, and some basic communication with other"ork 'ackages has been performed. his means that this "ork 'ackage has only spent about 1+L

of its allocation for the period.

Corrective actions

8o specific correcti e actions are needed, except for an increase in the le el of work acti ity.

-.-.+1 /or, Pac,age +1: Data andling and di"tribution"ork 'ackage 1$ is intended to determine how the %ISC/ 9$ data system is implemented on thee3infrastructure which currently exists in northern Scandina ia Bor is planned for the near future .his is achie ed through engagement with the national pro iders of networking, storage and high

performance computing in order to ensure that the re;uirements of the project can be optimallysatisfied.he acti ities in this "ork 'ackage will be coordinated by the Swedish 8ational Infrastructure forComputing, which is an entity within the Swedish 6esearch Council.

he acti ities in "ork 'ackage 1$ ha e not yet started. hey are expected to begin after the summerof !+1!.he planned acti ities in this "ork 'ackage are) etermining how to address the networkingre;uirements, using existing fibre networks as far as possible B ask 1$.1 , examination of anychanges to the data3handling philosophy which might be re;uired if the Software3 efined 6adio philosophy is adopted for the signal processing and beam3forming B ask 1$.! , interactions, and possible collaboration, with other %S56I projects with respect to issues regarding data handling anddistribution B ask 1$.$ , examination of the potential of existing resource pro iders to help addressthe storage and computing re;uirements for the %ISC/ 9$ system B ask 1$.4 and, finally,determining the optimum method for implementing the o erall %ISC/ 9$ data system concept,exploiting existing infrastructure as far as possible B ask 1$.# .

!i nificant results

his "ork 'ackage has not yet started.


In the original plan, the acti ities in "ork 'ackage 1$ were intended to start at the beginning of the project and continue at a relati ely low intensity. hese plans ha e subse;uently been adjusted sothat the acti ities will start at a later point in the project, but on a full time le el. he impact onother "ork 'ackages from this change is minimal, since the final eli erables are still expected to be produced at the time defined in the original plan. Jowe er, the timing of the 2ilestones of this"ork 'ackage is affected by the change.

Corrective actions

/s described abo e, "ork 'ackage 1$ will start at a later time compared to the work plan, but itwill proceed at higher intensity and thus the eli erables are expected to be produced at the timedefined in the work plan.

-.1.+ Con"ortium management ta"," and ac ie#ement"he %ISC/ management team, the project office, consists of J. /ndersson, /. julin and

%. urunen as the project Coordinator since the beginning of the project, and I. 2ann who joined as

a project manager in /ugust !+11. he %ISC/ team is complemented by I. 2cCrea at S 5C. heo erall go erning body for the project is the Feneral /ssembly that meets at least once per year.he daily work within the project is o erseen by the %xecuti e <oard that has weekly tele3

conferences and a physical meeting nominally e ery $ months.

-.1.- Problem" and "olution"/s far as the technical design of the instrument is concerned, the original work plan of the projectcontains some gaps. his, combined with a deficiency of engineering workforce from the projectCoordinator side and a set of delayed recruitments within the project, has compromised the progressof the performance specification and of some of the technical "ork 'ackages. his has in turn had anegati e impact on the cost estimate and on the consortium negotiations. he gaps in the work planwere noted during the first meeting of the echnical /d isory Committee and ha e later beendiscussed in detail during the first /ll3Jands 2eeting in ctober !+11. In order to identify thesegaps and to compensate for them, %ISC/ has recruited a echnical %xpert who will primarily takeo er the coordination of the missing system integration tasks as well as the tasks related to theinstrument cost estimate and the manufacturing. he cost for this echnical %xpert has to beco ered by the project, hence a project re ision is planned in order to make these funds a ailable.In general the project faces a number of different expectations. hese are ranging from theexpectations from the national research councils for a tangible instrument design and a solid costestimate, the expectations from %ISC/ users for a new functional system as soon as possible, to

the expectations from radio scientists for an instrument design based on cutting edge radio scienceresults obtained from mathematically rigorous considerations. In the first report from the echnical/d isory Committee, it was also noted that there is some competition between different groups onse eral issues Bsuch as array layout, signal processing, etc. and that this seem to stem from a strongdesire from many in ol ed parts to define what the finished %ISC/ 9$ system should be, withstrong disagreement with approaches from other parts. In the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase thisissue is addressed with a continuing effort of offering means for open communication within theuser community. utreach acti ities are particularly important for this. 2oreo er, the echnical%xpert, who will start working on 1 2ay !+1! for %ISC/ , will participate in the communication between the project and its users.

uring its second meeting, the Feneral /ssembly complained about an information deficiencyabout the progress of the different "ork 'ackages. In order to pro ide accurate information, the project office has now implemented a system that collects reports from the different "ork 'ackageson a $3monthly basis. he first of these reports was re;uested for the - month time period from >ulyto ecember !+11, and it was found that these reports are a useful tool for the communicationwithin the project.

-.1.1 C ange" %it in t e con"ortium"hen the project started, the Swedish 8ational Infrastructure for Computing BS8IC , that isresponsible for "ork 'ackage 1$, was an entity under the Swedish 6esearch Council B76 .

5ollowing rearrangements of the organisational structure of S8IC, it will be associated with

2+




ppsala ni ersity. his change will re;uire some consideration in the recruitment process that is planned for the near future in "ork 'ackage 1$, but has no impact on the actual work that will becarried out. he other effects, if any, that this reorganisation may ha e on the S8IC acti ities in the%ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase are not yet clear.

-.1.3 Project &lanninghe project planning has gone through minor changes in order to take into account the delayedstarts of some of the "ork 'ackages. In practice, this means that there will be an intensification ofthe acti ities later in the project compared to the planned le el. 2ore information about the changesare found in the description of the indi idual "ork 'ackages in Section!.! .

-.1.4 Im&act o! de#iation"Some of the 2ilestones and eli erables in the %ISC/ 9$ 'reparatory 'hase are delayed. heimpacts from most of these delays are minor. Jowe er, the delayed production of an initial performance specification has had an impact on the planning in some of the "ork 'ackages wherethis input is needed.

-.1.5 /eb"itehe %ISC/ 9$ website, www.eiscat$d.se, is managed by %ISC/ Jead;uarters, and the contentis hosted in ?iruna. he website has been on3line since 2arch !++0, and it is prepared using thecontent management system rupal which is an open source system written in 'J'. <y using acontent management system, the maintenance of the website is significantly simplified compared to preparing the content from ground, although some of the flexibility is sometimes lost. 2ost of thewebsite is accessible by e eryone, but some of areas re;uires login for pri acy reasons. sers may
