  2. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    In the past, radar AGC was electronically controlled and affected the gain of the entire radar receiver. As radars evolved, AGC became computer-software controlled and affected the gain with greater granularity in specific detection cells. Radar multipath echoes from a target cause ghosts to appear.

  3. Radioglaciology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioglaciology

    Radioglaciology is the study of glaciers, ice sheets, ice caps and icy moons using ice penetrating radar.It employs a geophysical method similar to ground-penetrating radar and typically operates at frequencies in the MF, HF, VHF and UHF portions of the radio spectrum.

  4. Cosecant squared antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosecant_squared_antenna

    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.

  6. Sensitivity time control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_Time_Control

    STC addresses this problem by implementing a reverse gain curve with the same characteristics as the radar equation, that is, a / dependency or some function close to that (often there are discrete steps). This dramatically damps down amplification of signals received shortly after the detection pulse is sent, preventing them from saturating ...

  7. Pulse compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_compression

    In radar or sonar applications, linear chirps are the most typically used signals to achieve pulse compression. The pulse being of finite length, the amplitude is a rectangle function . If the transmitted signal has a duration T {\displaystyle T} , begins at t = 0 {\displaystyle t=0} and linearly sweeps the frequency band Δ f {\displaystyle ...

  9. Radar tracker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_tracker

    A radar tracker is a component of a radar system, or an associated command and control (C2) system, that associates consecutive radar observations of the same target into tracks. It is particularly useful when the radar system is reporting data from several different targets or when it is necessary to combine the data from several different ...
