Modern radars generally perform all of these MTI techniques as part of a wider suite of signal processing being carried out by digital signal processors. MTI may be specialized in terms of the type of clutter and environment: airborne MTI (AMTI), ground MTI (GMTI), etc., or may be combined mode: stationary and moving target indication (SMTI).
Range ambiguity occurs when the time taken for an echo to return from a target is greater than the pulse repetition period (T); if the interval between transmitted pulses is 1000 microseconds, and the return-time of a pulse from a distant target is 1200 microseconds, the apparent distance of the target is only 200 microseconds.
Areas outside the blue zones are blind ranges and blind velocities, which are filled in using multiple PRF and frequency agility. The unambiguous zone is in the lower left corner. All of the other blocks have ambiguous range or ambiguous radial velocity. Pulse Doppler radar relies on medium pulse repetition frequency (PRF) from about 3 kHz to ...
Pulse Doppler relies on medium pulse repetition frequency (PRF) from about 3 kHz to 30 kHz. Each transmit pulse is separated by 5 km to 50 km distance. Range and speed of the target are folded by a modulo operation produced by the sampling process. True range is found using the ambiguity resolution process. Ambiguity resolution process explanation
The simplest method is available when the apparent size of the target is relatively small with respect to clutter source. In this case the reduced pulse and beam width, which matches the expected target size, may produce good signal-to-noise ratio (target to clutter ratio). Additional discrimination capabilities rely on target imaging or ...
The advantage of combining Doppler processing with pulse radars is to provide accurate velocity information. This velocity is called range-rate. It describes the rate that a target moves toward or away from the radar. A target with no range-rate reflects a frequency near the transmitter frequency and cannot be detected.
How much does the test cost? The Galleri test — which isn’t covered by insurance — doesn’t come cheap. At $949 a pop, it’s out of the price range of most people.
The ability to counter steep diving missiles was improved with more energy at higher elevations or longer pulse. [5]: 316–317 SPY-1B(V) is a development of earlier SPY-1B with moving target indication capability incorporated in 1997. [5]: 316–317
