New Horizons Radio Science Experiment (REX) Pluto Encounter Tracking and Navigation Files (TNF), Version 1.0

This data set contains Tracking and Navigation Files (TNF) created for the New Horizons Radio Science Experiment (REX) instrument during the Pluto ENCOUNTER mission phase. The collection includes uplink tuning profile data in, and extracted from, Tracking and Navigation Files (TNFs) for all CORE observations. Although uplink data signals were sent from the Ground Element to REX during the Approach sub-phase, tuning profiles for those signals are not provided as they are not needed to analyze those REX Approach observations comprising instrument checkout, characterization and calibration activities. The REX datasets over the mission include calibrations using known radio sources, Jupiter, and cold sky measurements; operational readiness tests (ORTs); internal test pattern calibration; and prime science radiometry and occultation observations during the Pluto Encounter. These data were migrated from the previously released PDS3 data set NH-P-REX-2-PLUTO-V2.0.
