An example of slant range is the distance to an aircraft flying at high altitude with respect to that of the radar antenna. The slant range (1) is the hypotenuse of the triangle represented by the altitude of the aircraft and the distance between the radar antenna and the aircraft's ground track (point (3) on the earth directly below the aircraft).
Slant range, in telecommunications, the line-of-sight distance between two points which are not at the same level Slant drilling (or Directional drilling), the practice of drilling non-vertical wells Slant height , is the distance from any point on the circle to the apex of a right circular cone
Spherical coordinates (r, θ, φ) as commonly used: (ISO 80000-2:2019): radial distance r (slant distance to origin), polar angle θ (angle with respect to positive polar axis), and azimuthal angle φ (angle of rotation from the initial meridian plane). This is the convention followed in this article.
Definition of angles in the vertical plane of SLAR Geometry of an SLAR SLAR radar at ILA Berlin Air Show. Side-looking airborne radar (SLAR) is an aircraft, [1] or satellite-mounted imaging radar pointing perpendicular to the direction of flight (hence side-looking). [2]
An object at height h above the ground and slant range R forms an angle α that can be calculated through sin α = h / R.By re-arrangement, R = h / sin α, or R = h csc α. The radar equation states that the signal received from an object, P e, varies inversely with the 4th power of range and directly as the square of the antenna gain, G, such that P e ~ G 2 / R 4.
This means that the rifle sight setting for any range from 0 to 500 meters is available. The sight adjustment procedure can be followed step-by-step. 1. Determine the slant range to the target. Assume that a range finder is available that determines that the target is exactly 300 meters distance. 2. Determine the elevation angle of the target.
Range, any kitchen stove with multiple burners, especially in the United States; All-electric range, the driving range of a vehicle using only power from its electric battery pack; Range of a projectile, the potential distance a projectile can be hurled by a firearm or cannon; Slant range, distance between two objects on different levels
Pure, bracing ventilation they must have up there at all times, indeed. One may guess the power of the north wind blowing over the edge by the excessive slant of a few stunted firs at the end of the house, and by a range of gaunt thorns all stretching their limbs one way, as if craving alms of the sun. —
