Ship-borne VHF radar for upper atmospheric research

Abstract

We have installed a VHF radar on board the Peruvian Vessel BIC Humboldt. Most of radar componentes are similar to those used by the JULIA system at Jicamarca (receptor, transmitor, acquisition (control system). However as expected the antenna design and installation is quite different.
