Ambiguities are proportional to the strength of the offending backscatter, and as such, they contribute to the multiplicative noise* ratio (MNR) of the system. Antenna sidelobes and ambiguities are further suppressed by appropriate weighting in the processor. The trade-off is lower MNR, at the expense of broader im... |

The usual detection criteria employ the concept of direct probabil- ity, which describes the chance of an event happening on a given hypothesis. For example, the probability that a particular radar will detect a certain target under specified conditions is a direct probability. On the other hand, if an event actual... |
In order to obtain the required short-range performance, it transmits a frame of pulses with differing lengths. Each pulse within the frame is optimized to cover a specified range bracket. Overall, the pulse sequence completely covers the instrumented range and ensures that the IMO specified minimum range requirem... |
The output from one of the antennas was used for transmission and for provid- ing the range information. with such an arrangement it was difficult to obtain the desired aperture illuminations and to maintain a stable boresight.

Turnstile junc- tions7 achieve isolations as high as 40 to 60 dB.

The LFM waveform has a knife-edge ambiguity function with contours that are approximately elliptical with a major axis defined by the line v = at, where a = ± B/T is the LFM slope.

Therefore, while the antenna is radiating less power, individual components must be designed to handle more peak power.

Automatic Noise-Level Control. Another widely employed use for AGC is to maintain a desired level of receiver noise at the A/D converter. As will be described in Section 6.10, too little noise relative to the quantization increment of the A/D con - verter causes a loss in sensitivity. |
