  2. Amplitude-comparison monopulse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude-Comparison_Monopulse

    This method is used in monopulse radar, electronic warfare and radio astronomy. Amplitude monopulse antennas are usually reflector antennas. [1]

  3. Monopulse radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopulse_radar

    Monopulse radar is a radar system that uses additional encoding of the radio signal to provide accurate directional information. The name refers to its ability to extract range and direction from a single signal pulse. Monopulse radar avoids problems seen in conical scanning radar systems, which can be confused by rapid changes in signal strength.

  4. Bistatic radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bistatic_radar

    Bistatic radar block diagram Bistatic Radar Passive Receiver System from NCSIST of Taiwan. Bistatic radar is a radar system comprising a transmitter and receiver that are separated by a distance comparable to the expected target distance. Conversely, a conventional radar in which the transmitter and receiver are co-located is called a ...

  5. Continuous-wave radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous-wave_radar

    Continuous-wave radar (CW radar) is a type of radar system where a known stable frequency continuous wave radio energy is transmitted and then received from any reflecting objects. [1] Individual objects can be detected using the Doppler effect , which causes the received signal to have a different frequency from the transmitted signal ...

  6. Track while scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Track_while_scan

    The drawback is that once the radar is set to tracking a single target, the operator loses information about any other targets. This is the problem that track while scan is meant to address. In traditional radar systems, the display is purely electrical; signals from the radar dish are amplified and sent directly to an oscilloscope for display ...

  7. Active Phased Array Radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Phased_Array_Radar

    APAR is typically paired with Thales Nederland's SMART-L passive electronically scanned array radar (which operates at L band frequencies). SMART-L is a long-range Volume Search Radar (VSR) that is able to provide volume search and tracking out to 480 km. The whole system is called Anti-Air Warfare Systems (AAWS), and is based on the NATO Anti ...

  8. Synthetic-aperture radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic-aperture_radar

    Synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) is a form of radar that is used to create two-dimensional images or three-dimensional reconstructions of objects, such as landscapes. [1] SAR uses the motion of the radar antenna over a target region to provide finer spatial resolution than conventional stationary beam

  9. AN/FPS-16 Instrumentation Radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../AN/FPS-16_Instrumentation_Radar

    AN/FPS-16 Radar Set block diagram. The AN/FPS-16 is a C-band monopulse radar utilizing a waveguide hybrid-labyrinth comparator to develop angle track information. The comparator receives RF signals from an array of four feed horns which are located at the focal point of a 12-foot (4 m) parabolic reflector.
