Default Info about DSN and mars rovers

Hi,

In order to complete an article, can someone provide me an URL or give me
technical data about the telecommunication system used at JPL with Mars
Rovers Spirit and Opportunity ?
I am searching data about frequencies used at DSN, low gain antenna
radiation pattern, power, sensitivity, high gain antenna beam width,
radiation pattern, bandwith, emitting power, strength of receive signal,
sensitivity, gain, sizing

There are some info at marsrovers.jpl... but very few.

Thanks in advance

Hi Thierry,

This 13-page PDF document was written in 1997 but might answer a lot of your
questions. It doesn't talk about the direct link that the current rovers use
sometimes but does cover UHF to the satellite relays.
