Scientific paper

This paper discusses spacecraft Doppler tracking, the current-generation detection technique in the low-frequency gravitational wave band. Unlike other detectors, the ~1-10 AU earth-spacecraft separation makes the Doppler detector large compared with the gravitational wavelength; this has the consequence that a signal is time-resolved into three events in the Doppler time series. The principles of operation, including the transfer functions of the gravitational wave signal and the leading noise processes to the observed Doppler frequency time series, are outlined. Experiments-to-date, and the expected performance of the very-high-sensitivity Cassini experiment (to be done in 2001-2004) are discussed.
