Orbital Operation The experiment should be done in the order of the Functional Objectives (FOs), so that the following general procedure is possible. (1) Deploy tethered Receiver upward from the platform in an earth-oriented attitude. When it reaches 1 km from the platform, the rectenna will be deployed first. (2) The system checkout will be performed at Transmitter and Receiver. A microwave transmission test from Transmitter to Receiver will be performed. (3) Microwave energy transmission test will follow the checkout, if the result is acceptable. The experiment will be conducted in both retrodirective and computer- controlled modes.
