Abstract:

This report describes the design for a spaceborne elfvlf transmitter. The transmitter could be used for experiments to obtain the radiation data in a space plasma required to determine the feasibility of an elf downlink communications system from a satellite to a subsurface antenna. The antenna is designed to be deployed by the Remote Manipulator Arm on the Space Shuttle. Keywords Extremely Low Frequency Very Low Frequency Transmitters Ionosphere.
