This book was released on 1999 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During periods when military budgets and aircraft fleet sizes are shrinking, systems that serve to cost effectively increase the utility of the remaining weapons can still undergo procurement growth. The increased situational awareness and battle field management provided by Airborne Early Warning (AEW) radar is one such force multiplier. The primary role of an AEW aircraft is the long-range detection of airborne targets. As potent new airborne threats, such as low flying cruise missiles, reduce the timelines that traditional air defense systems have to react, the utility of an AEW system's long-range surveillance capabilities to recover the lost time is clear. Fundamentally, these new targets stress the principal performance capabilities of an AEW radar sensor leveling new requirements on these systems to deal with this advanced threat. These increased requirements have led to world-wide, substantive work in the development of radar upgrades to existing AEW aircraft, such as the U.S. Navy's E-2C Hawkeye and the U.S. Air Force's E-3A AWACS, as well as new systems and platforms, such as the Swedish Air Force's ERIEYE. The required increases in sensitivity, resolution, and the associated data rates that stem from these performance improvements will have profound impact on the way these systems are operated and how they perform in various environments. As these increasingly capable systems evolve, AEW radar will be expected to take on additional missions and perform other surveillance functions in the pursuit of dominant battle field awareness. Unfortunately, little or nothing has been written to document the largely unique techniques needed to perform the system level flight testing of these new AEW radars. The procedures have largely been passed from one individual to the next without the benefit of substantive documentation.

Download or read book AGARD Flight Test Techniques Series Volume 7 Air to Air Radar Flight Testing written by and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume in the AGARD Flight Test Techniques Series describes flight test techniques, flight test instrumentation, ground simulation, data reduction and analysis methods used to determine the performance characteristics of a modern air-to-air (a/a) radar system. Following a general coverage of specification requirements, test plans, support requirements, development and operational testing, and management information systems, the report goes into more detailed flight test techniques covering a/a radar capabilities of: detection, manual acquisition, automatic acquisition, tracking a single target, and detection and tracking of multiple targets. There follows a section on additional flight test considerations such as electromagnetic compatibility, electronic counter-countermeasures, displays and controls, degraded and backup modes, radome effects, environmental considerations, and use of testbeds. Other sections cover ground simulation, flight test instrumentation, and data reduction and analysis. The final sections deal with reporting and a discussion of considerations for the future and how they may impact radar flight testing.

Book excerpt: The first chapters introduce the subject and define the nature of the targets that radar is expected to detect and track and the natural environment--the atmosphere and clutter with which radar must deal. Subsequent chapters are devoted to the analysis and design formulation of airborne early warning radars. Emphasis is on information appropriate to radar bands that are conventionally used or considered for long-range surveillance. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book excerpt: The report presents an operational evaluation of the accuracies of the Rawin Set AN/GMD-2A. The analysis presented is based on data generated by 24 radiosonde flights conducted at both low and high elevation angle conditions. Two radar sets (AN/FPS-16) tracking a corner reflector attached to the radiosonde train were used as the standard for comparison. (Author).
