Radar Processor/Display

Description

The Radar Processor/Display is used in conjunction with the Basic Radar Training System to form a complete and modern pulse radar system. The Radar Processor/Display adds the following elements to the Basic Radar Training System: radar echo signal processing functions, PPI display functions, on-screen block diagrams of the complete radar and radar processor/display subsystem, and computer-based (i.e., on-screen) instruments (oscilloscope and data monitoring system). Two major types of radar echo signal processing function are available: Moving Target Indication (MTI) and Moving Target Detection (MTD). The Radar Processor/Display also provides computer-controlled generation of clutter and interference to allow study of the MTI processing function. The following types of clutter and interference can be generated: sea clutter, rain clutter, second-trace echo, noise, and pulse interference.
