  2. Pulse-repetition frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-repetition_frequency

    Doppler signals fall between 1.5 kHz, and 15 kHz, which is audible, so audio signals from medium-PRF radar systems can be used for passive target classification. For example, an L band radar system using a PRF of 10 kHz with a duty cycle of 3.3% can identify true range to a distance of 450 km (30 * C / 10,000 km/s). This is the instrumented ...

  3. Pulse-Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-Doppler_radar

    The Hughes AN/ASG-18 Fire Control System was a prototype airborne radar/combination system for the planned North American XF-108 Rapier interceptor aircraft for the United States Air Force, and later for the Lockheed YF-12. The US's first pulse-Doppler radar, [4] the system had look-down/shoot-down capability and could track one target at a time.

  4. ASR-11 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASR-11

    The second advantage of using an ASR-11 is the radar's ability to utilize a pulse sequence diversity. This gives the radar system the capability to limit processing dwells to a small number of pulses. This feature becomes most important when monitoring air traffic is the primary use of the radar.

  5. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    When the PRF of the "jamming" radar is very similar to "our" radar, those apparent distances may be very slow-changing, just like real targets. By using stagger, a radar designer can force the "jamming" to jump around erratically in apparent range, inhibiting integration and reducing or even suppressing its impact on true target detection.

  6. AN/AWG-9 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN/AWG-9

    The AN/AWG-9 and AN/APG-71 radars are all-weather, multi-mode X band pulse-Doppler radar systems used in the F-14 Tomcat, and also tested on TA-3B. [1] It is a long-range air-to-air system capable of guiding several AIM-54 Phoenix or AIM-120 AMRAAM missiles simultaneously, using its track while scan mode.

  7. Synthetic-aperture radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic-aperture_radar

    The bandwidth of a chirped system can be as narrow or as wide as the designers desire. Pulse-based UWB systems, being the more common method associated with the term "UWB radar", are described here. A pulse-based radar system transmits very short pulses of electromagnetic energy, typically only a few waves or less.

  8. AN/APG-68 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN/APG-68

    The AN/APG-68(V)9 [6] radar system consists of the following line-replaceable units: Antenna; Medium Duty Transmitter (MDT) Modular Receiver/Exciter (MoRE) Common Radar Processor (CoRP) The AN/APG-68(V)9 radar is the latest development. Besides the increase in scan range compared to the previous version, it has a Synthetic aperture radar (SAR ...

  9. Range ambiguity resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_ambiguity_resolution

    The difference between the sample numbers where reflection signal is found for these two PRF will be about the same as the number of the ambiguous range intervals between the radar and the reflector (i.e.: if the reflection falls in sample 3 for PRF 1 and in sample 5 for PRF 2, then the reflector is in ambiguous range interval 2=5-3).
