  2. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    At any range, with similar azimuth and elevation angles and as viewed by a radar with an unmodulated pulse, the range resolution is approximately equal in distance to half of the pulse duration times the speed of light (approximately 300 meters per microsecond). Radar echoes, showing a representation of the carrier

  3. Radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar

    Missile guidance, marine radar, weather, medium-resolution mapping and ground surveillance; in the United States the narrow range 10.525 GHz ±25 MHz is used for airport radar; short-range tracking. Named X band because the frequency was a secret during WW2.

  4. Slant range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slant_range

    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).

  5. Radar cross section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_cross_section

    Measurement of a target's RCS is performed at a radar reflectivity range or scattering range. [citation needed] The first type of range is an outdoor range where the target is positioned on a specially shaped low RCS pylon some distance down-range from the transmitters. Such a range eliminates the need for placing radar absorbers behind the ...

  6. Range ambiguity resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_ambiguity_resolution

    Range ambiguity resolution is a technique used with medium pulse-repetition frequency (PRF) radar to obtain range information for distances that exceed the distance between transmit pulses. This signal processing technique is required with pulse-Doppler radar. [1] [2] [3]

  7. Envelope (radar) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Envelope_(radar)

    The instrumented range is the maximum distance at which a radar return may be displayed. This does not indicate an object will be detected at this range, but merely that beyond this range no returns will be displayed at all. [4]

  8. Pulse-repetition frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-repetition_frequency

    Range and velocity can both be identified using medium PRF, but neither one can be identified directly. Medium PRF is from 3 kHz to 30 kHz, which corresponds with radar range from 5 km to 50 km. This is the ambiguous range, which is much smaller than the maximum range. Range ambiguity resolution is used to determine true range in medium PRF radar.

  9. S1850M - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S1850M

    S1850M radar on HMS Daring. The S1850M is a long-range radar with a digital antenna array for wide area search in elevation. The S1850M is manufactured by Thales and BAE Systems Integrated System Technologies (formerly AMS UK). It is a modified version of the Thales Nederland SMART-L radar. The S1850M is advertised as being capable of fully ...
