TARGET TRACKING RADAR [18 records]

Record 1 2025-02-20

English

Subject field(s)
  • Sea Operations (Military)
  • Radar, Radio Guidance and Goniometry
CONT

After the incoming target aircraft has approached within attacking distance, the target was handed off to the HIPIR for final tracking. Upon launch of the Hawk missile, the target was illuminated by the HIPIR. The reflected radar signal is the homing signal for the launched missile.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Target Acquisition
  • Radar, Radio Guidance and Goniometry
CONT

The repeater, which consists of an amplifier and a programmable delay line, amplifies and delays the intercepted signal. By transmitting this signal back to the radar and gradually increasing the delay, the range gate in the radar tracking system can be captured and pulled away from the target echo, thereby producing range deception. This technique is usually referred to as range gate pull off(RGPO).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Acquisition d'objectif
  • Radar, radioguidage et radiogoniométrie
CONT

Le répétiteur, qui consiste en un amplificateur et en une ligne à retard programmable, amplifie et retarde le signal intercepté. La retransmission de ce signal au radar et l'augmentation graduelle du retard permettent la capture de la porte en distance du radar didactique et son déplacement par rapport à l'écho de la cible, ce qui produit une déception en distance. Cette technique est généralement appelée déréglage des portes de distance ou vol de la fenêtre de télémétrie (RGPO).

Subject field(s)
  • Weather Stations and Meteorological Instruments and Equipment
DEF

A method of winds-aloft observation; that is, the determination of wind speeds and directions in the atmosphere above a station.

OBS

It is accomplished by tracking a balloon-borne radar target, responder, or radiosonde transmitter with either radar or a radio direction finder. With a radio direction finder, the height data must be supplied by other means, normally by concurrent radiosonde observation. With radar, if height data are not otherwise supplied, the slant range must be recorded in addition to the angles of elevation and azimuth.
