RF weapons are usually divided into two categories: high power microwave (HPM) weapons and ultrawideband (UWB) (or video pulse) weapons.  6, record 1, English, - radio%20frequency%20weapon

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT

The primary distinction between RF weapons and more conventional EW systems is that RF weapons actually affect the electronics and not just the electronic environment, thereby causing temporary or permanent electronics failure that persists even after the RF beam has been turned off. RF weapons will mainly target receiver systems with in-band HPM [high-power microwave] radiation or computer systems with ultrawideband impulses.  5, record 1, English, - radio%20frequency%20weapon

Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Antenna pattern correction. The brightness of the image is affected by the antenna gain variation where the near range will receive maximum power while the far range will receive minimum power. This effect produces an image that varies in intensity(tone) along the range direction across the image. The antenna pattern effect is expressed as the energy returned to the radar and decreases dramatically as the range distance increases. Antenna pattern correction is applied to produce a uniform average brightness across the imaged swath.  3, record 5, English, - antenna%20pattern%20correction

Synthetic aperture processing is a complicated data processing of received signals and phases from moving targets with a small antenna, the effect of which is to should be theoretically convert to the effect of a large antenna, that is a synthetic aperture length...
