  2. Rho Theta Navigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rho_Theta_Navigation

    Rho-Theta methodology is a key component in Area Navigation (RNAV). [1] The term "Rho-Theta" consists of the two Greek letters corresponding to Rho and Theta: [2] [3] [4] Rho (Greek ρ) as a synonym for distance measurement, e.g. Rho would be the equivalent to the English abbreviation "R" for Range

  3. Beam riding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_riding

    Beam riding is one of the simplest methods of missile guidance using a radar. It was widely used for surface-to-air missiles in the post-World War II era for this reason. An early example was the British Brakemine, first tested in 1944, as was the first commercially available SAM, the Oerlikon Contraves RSA.

  4. Radar engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_engineering

    Radar engineering is the design of technical aspects pertaining to the components of a radar and their ability to detect the return energy from moving scatterers — determining an object's position or obstruction in the environment.

  5. Blind Approach Beacon System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blind_approach_beacon_system

    A blind approach beacon system or beam approach beacon system (BABS) is an automatic radar landing system developed in the early 1940s. [1] It is a responder (or transponder) mounted in a Hillman van and placed at the end of the runway. In some cases fixed sites were installed and by the mid-1950s Standard 9 vans were in use.

    Transposed Block Face-splitting product in the model of a Multi-Face radar with DAA, proposed by V. Slyusar in 1996 [5]. The main approach to digital signal processing in DAA is the "digital beamforming" after Analog-to-digital converters (ADC) of receiver channels or before Digital-to-analog converters (DAC) by transmission.

    Jeremy Dunn (Laser Technology Inc.) developed a police lidar device in 1989, [3] and in 2004 10% of U.S. sales of traffic enforcement devices were lidar rising to 30% in 2006, [1] given the advantages of lidar it appears likely that the majority of current sales are lidar, although sophisticated radar units are still being sold.

  9. Beam steering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_steering

    Beam steering is a technique for changing the direction of the main lobe of a radiation pattern. In radio and radar systems, beam steering may be accomplished by switching the antenna elements or by changing the relative phases of the RF signals driving the elements. As a result, this directs the transmit signal towards an intended receiver.
