DUE DATE

Q. 1 Calculate the duty cycle of a radar which transmits a 1.5 s pulse at a PRF of 8 kHz. If the peak
power of this radar is 500 kilowatts, what is the average power? What is the resting time?
(6KW, 124 s)
Q. 2 What is the maximum unambiguous range for a radar with a PRF of 600 Hz? What PRF is
required for maximum unambiguous range of 350 km? (250 km,428.6 Hz)

Q. 3 What is the minimum range for radar with a PW of 5 s? What is the radar's range resolution?
750 meters
Q. 4 If the receiver has a receiver sensitivity of -83 dBm, what is the value of the minimum
discernible signal (Smin)? 5.012x10-12 W

Q. 5 Given an antenna beam width of 3", a scan rate of 48o/sec and a PRF of 200 Hz; how many
pulses will be returned from a point target as the antenna scans through its beam width?12.5

Q. 6 Increasing the transmitter power of a radar by a factor of 5 will increase the maximum range
by what percent?49.5%

Q. 7 A given radar with a Smin = 10-9W can detect a target having a radar cross-section of 3 meter2
at a range of 40 miles. At what range can this same radar detect a 1 meter2 target if its
Sensitivity is improved by 6 dB?
Q. 8 A pulse-Doppler radar has a carrier frequency of 9 GHz and a PRF of 4000 Hz.

a. What are its "blind" Doppler frequencies? 4000 HZ, 8000 HZ, 12000 HZ, etc.
b. What radial target velocities would be undetected by the radar? integer multiple
of 66.67 m/sec
c. What modification can be made to the radar that would eliminate blind speeds below
2000 knots (use PRF)?
d. What would the maximum unambiguous range of the modified radar be?
e. What additional modification(s) would allow for an increase in maximum unambiguous
range?
