X-BAND RADAR [6 records]

Record 1 2010-10-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Radar, Radio Guidance and Goniometry
  • Advanced Technology Weapons
  • Photoelectricity and Electron Optics
CONT

A radar apparatus for a vehicle includes a casing, a correction member, and a selection indication. The casing includes a functional portion, which performs searching, and a reference surface. The correction member includes a plurality of correction surfaces. The selection indication indicates which one of the correction surfaces and the reference surface an attachment-direction adjustor is to be placed on during an attachment operation of the radar apparatus to the vehicle.

CONT

Naval Air Defence TMX/EO – Tracking Module with X-Band Radar and EO Sensors. Product Description. Highly dynamic three-axes tracking module equipped with X-band radar and EO sensors, i. e. TV camera, infrared camera, and laser rangefinder, for precision measurements of aerial, naval, and land-based targets.

CONT

The TMX-EO is equipped with a mono plus x-band radar and sensors for an integrated electro-optical line of sight, including an infrared camera, TV camera and laser rangefinder for passive target tracking.

CONT

The line has a straightener, a levelling zone and a new type of compacting calender for large production quantities with excellent compacting values.

Record 4 2006-09-20

English

Subject field(s)
  • Remote Sensing
CONT

A "RAW Signal Data" product contains raw or unprocessed radar video baseband data in complex in-phase and quadrature signal(I and Q) format as they are recorded by the spacecraft. The only processing performed to the downlink X-band "raw signal data" is the frame synchronization, meaning re-assembly of the data into contiguous radar range lines in matrix form, and the CEOS [Committee on Earth Observations Satellite] formatting. Each range line of data is represented by one Signal Data Record in the RAW CEOS product.

OBS

The RAW product can contain any single beam mode, or for ScanSAR any combination of different beam modes, depending on the operation of the SAR instrument during the data reception or recording period. A RAW product cannot, however, combine data from more than one beam mode, i.e. data from two different beam modes are always packaged as two separate products. A RAW product must be SAR processed before it can be displayed as imagery. RAW products are typically produced on 8 mm (Exabyte) tapes. This is the standard medium for exchanging data between network stations.

OBS

Raw data products are available for all RADARSAT beam modes.

OBS

"raw signal data" product: term officially approved by the RADARSAT-2 Terminology Approval Group (RTAG).

French

Domaine(s)

OBS

Les produits RADARSAT sont disponibles en format archive ou informatisé (différents niveaux de traitement). Caractéristiques du produit : signal radar brut avec données auxiliaires; traitements visés et synthèse d'images, interférométrie.

OBS

produit «raw signal data» : terme uniformisé par le Groupe de travail de la terminologie de RADARSAT-2 (GTTR).

  • Remote Sensing
  • Electromagnetic Radiation
CONT

X-band(9. 5-10. 0 GHz) backscatter at near grazing incidence(0. 2 deg) from the sea off the coast of Kauai, Hawaii, was measured with a radar characterized by a high spatial resolution in range(0. 3 m) and a high temporal resolution(2000 Hz pulse repetition frequency(PRF].... Each type of clutter exhibited the characteristic spiky behavior which has come to be expected from microwave sea backscatter observed at low grazing angles and high range resolutions, while showing, between themselves, marked transmit geometry and polarization dependent contrasts, with the horizontally polarized clutter, measured with an UP transmit geometry, being especially notable for its frequently occurring, significant high frequency spectral content.
