Notch power ratio tests were performed on a magnetic tape recorder/ reproducer, using direct recording in the baseband. For the equipment tested, it is concluded that the IRIG method of setting the record power level as that which produces 1% third harmonic on a single tone, does not necessarily result in an optimum record/reproduce cycle. It is concluded that the input and output levels should be set with reference to notch noise test data to optimize baseband tape recording performance for baseband recording of frequency division multiplexed systems. In order to interpret the notch noise data, it was necessary to assume two non-linear processes, one acting in conjunction with the record process and one in conjunction with the playback process.Sponsors
