Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Present versions of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Surveillance Radar (ASR) use either magnetron or klystron radar transmitter configurations. These radars transmit a simple pulse waveform and use the peak power capabilities in the detection process. Solid-state technology does not allow for transmission of high-peak power pulses in the S-band. As a consequence, the solid-state transmitter uses the average power capabilities of the transmitted pulses. A longer, lower peak power pulse is transmitted. The pulse is coded to increase the bandwidth of the transmitted waveform. Upon reception of the echo, the long pulse is compressed to provide the range resolution of a shorter pulse. This report presents results of tests of a solid-state transmitter system developed by ITT and Thomson-CSF under a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRDA) with the FAA. The demonstration system was tested at the ASR-9 test facility at the FAA Technical Center, Atlantic City International Airport, NJ. The tests performed were divided into three major categories; transmitter tests, receiver tests, and system tests. The transmitter tests included measurements of the waveforms and operating frequencies; the output power; the output spectrum; and a maintainability demonstration. The receiver tests included measurements of the noise figure, dynamic range, bandwidth, and waveform characteristics at the output of the pulse compressor. The system tests included measurements of the pulse compression time sidelobe performance, stability, detection performance, and range resolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study group was convened in the Summer of 1974 by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to define the characteristics of the next generation airport surveillance radar (ASR). This was designated as the ASR-(). The study group was comprised of representatives from MIT Lincoln Laboratory, the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, MITRE, NAFEC, AAF, AAT, ASP, AEM and ARD. The operational requirements developed for the ASR-() include coverage on a small aircraft (one square meter radar cross section) out to 40 nautical miles; up to 15,000 feet altitude; at elevation angles of 0.3 to 30 degrees; in an environment of precipitation clutter, ground clutter, angel clutter, and anomalous propagation; and with a resolution commensurate with a separation standard of 2 nautical miles at a range of 30 nautical miles. Reliability, maintainability, and availability should be equal to that of the ASR-7 and ASR-8. Using the operational requirements, candidate radar systems were defined at four frequencies; VHF (420-450 MHz), L-band (1250-1350 MHz), and S-band (2700-2900 MHz) and 5'-band (3500-3700 MHz). The recommended system is the L-band system which has the following characteristics: azimuth beamwdith of 2.25 degrees, PRF of 1100-1360 pps, data rate of 4 sec., instrumented range of 60 nmi and a pulse width of 1.0 usec.
