A method of removing non-aerodynamic signals and calibrating the High Resolution Accelerometer Package (HiRAP) flight data was developed and is discussed for Shuttle Orbiter missions STS-35 and STS-40. These two mission data sets were analyzed using ground (dynamic) calibration data and flight calibrations using a flight calibration technique that was developed and refined over the HiRAP operational lifetime. This technique evolved early in the flight program, since it was recognized that ground calibration factors are insufficient to determine absolute low acceleration levels. The application of flight calibration factors to the data sets from these missions produced calibrated acceleration levels within an accuracy of less than plus or minus 1.5 micro-g of zero during a time in the flight when the acceleration level was known to be less than 1 micro-g. This analysis further confirms the theory that flight calibrations are required in order to obtain the absolute measurement of low-frequency, low-acceleration flight signals.
