  • Page 17: Basic Operation Of The Radar

    Section 5 Basic Operation of the Radar Use the radar as your navigation aid. Final decision on the ship operation must be made by the ship operator himself. If you depend entirely on the radar information for the final decision on the ship operation, such an accident as collision and stranding may occur.
  • Page 18 Refer to "5.2.1 Powering on and starting". Power ON this system and start the radar. Refer to "5.3 Observation Environment and Adjust reception gain, sea clutter and rain/snow Image Adjustment". clutter so that the observation range as well as the target display become the clearest.

  • Page 19: Starting And Shutting Down The Radar

    Starting and Shutting Down the Radar 5.2.1 Powering on and starting Note • Wait for about 2 seconds before turning on the power again. • Immediately after the radar is installed, at start of the system after it has not been used for a long time, or after the magnetron is replaced, preheat the equipment in the standby state for 20 to 30 minutes before setting it into the transmit state.
  • Page 20 Click on the [Collision Avoidance (RADAR)] button on Task Menu. The RADAR screen appears. The preheating time is displayed at the center of the screen. Preheating time Section 5 Basic Operation of the Radar...
  • Page 21 When the magnetron radar antenna is connected, “Preheat” is displayed on the Standby/Send switching button. Wait until preheating is complete. When the preheating time expires, the preheating time display disappears, and the display of the Standby/Transmit switch button changes from "Preheat" to "Standby". Click on the Standby/Transmit switch button.

  • Page 22: Exiting Radar Operation

    5.2.2 Exiting radar operation Click on the Standby/Transmit switch button in Radar system information. Radar transmission stops and the rotation of the radar antenna stops. The display of the Standby/Transmit switch button changes from "Transmit" to "Standby". Memo If observation using the radar is being scheduled within a comparably short period of time, keep this state.

  • Page 23: Observation Environment And Image Adjustment

    Observation Environment and Image Adjustment 5.3.1 Adjusting screen brightness Adjust the screen brightness. For the details of the adjustment, refer to "3.9 Adjusting the Brightness of the Screen and Operation Unit". In consideration of the ambient brightness, adjust the brightness of the display that is high enough to easily observe the radar display but does not glare.
  • Page 24 Since the image within the previous observation range is displayed by expanding/contracting for the period from immediately after switching of the observation range from the next image updating, do not use this image for navigation. If this image is used for navigation, an accident may occur. Note An observation range under which the own ship display positon and the antenna position exceeds the area 66% of the screen radius cannot be selected.

  • Page 25: Adjusting Tune

    5.3.3 Adjusting tune Normally, use the automatic tune mode. If you use the manual tuning mode, an accident may be caused by fluctuation of transmission and reception. Use the manual tune mode only when best tuning is not possible in the automatic tune mode due to deterioration of magnetron.

  • Page 26: Adjusting Gain

    Using the manual tune mode Click on the tune mode button. [MAN] (manual) is displayed on the tune mode button. Each time this button is clicked on, the display switches between [AUTO] (automatic) and [MAN] (manual). Move the fine tuning slider to the left and right sides. The tuning status is displayed on the tuning bar according to the movement of the fine tuning slider.

    Collision Avoidance Issue (Explanation) 6.2.1 Collision Avoidance in Navigation Marine collision avoidance in navigation is one of the problems that have been recognized from of old. This section contains a brief statement about the position of collision avoidance in navigation. The navigation pattern of all mobile craft constitutes a system with some closed loops regardless of the media through which the mobile craft travels, whether air, water, the boundary between air and water, or space.

  • Page 58: Basic Concept Of Collision Avoidance

    6.2.3 Basic Concept of Collision Avoidance There are two aspects in collision avoidance: collision prediction and avoidance. Putting it in extreme terms, collision prediction is to predict that two or more vessels will happen to occupy the same point at the same time, while collision avoidance is to maneuver vessels not to occupy the same point at the same time.

    Sea Clutter and Rain/Snow Clutter In addition to the echo required for observing ships and land, radar video image also includes undesirable echo, such as reflection from waves on the sea surface and reflection from rain and snow. Reflection from the sea surface is called "sea clutter," and reflection from rain and snow is called "rain and snow clutter,"...

  • Page 150: Rain And Snow Clutter

    As shown in the following table, the number of SS increases as the wind speed becomes high and the waves become large. The tables in the previous page show that detection probability decreases from V (80 %) to NV (less than 50 %) as the number of SS increases. Therefore, even if the sea state is calm and a target clearly appears on the radar display, when the sea state becomes rough, target detection probability decreases resulting in difficulty of target detection by the radar.

When an X band radar is used, reducing the pulse length will reduce the influence by undesired signal, and also the undesired signal rejection function effectively works;...

  • Page 153: False Echoes

    False Echoes The radar observer may be embarrassed with some echoes that do not exist actually. These false echoes appear by the following causes that are well known: 7.4.1 Shadow When the radar antenna is installed near a funnel or mast, the echo of a target that exists in the direction of the funnel or mast cannot appear on the radar display because the radar beam is reflected on the funnel or mast.

  • Page 154: False Echo By Secondary Reflection

    When a radar antenna for the solid-state radar is connected, a false echo may occur in the range direction of the target image. This false echo normally means a range side lobe, which is generated as a result of pulse compression processing when a large target such as a vessel is at a short distance. False echo False echo...

    7.4.4 False echo by multiple reflection When there is a large structure or ship with a high vertical surface near own ship as shown in the following Figure, multiple refection may appear on the radar display. These echoes appear in the same intervals, of which the nearest echo is the true echo of the target.

    7.4.6 Radar interference When another radar equipment using the same frequency band is near own ship, a radar interference pattern may appear on the radar display. This interference pattern consists of a number of spots which appear in various forms. In many cases, these spots do not always appear at the same places, so that they can be discriminated from the target echoes.

    Radar Transponder (SART) Screen Display SART is life-saving equipment that was approved by GMDSS and is used for detecting positions of survivors who suffer from distress accidents. SART, which operates under the frequency band of 9GHz, receives a radar wave of 9GHz that is launched from the radar of the rescue boat or plane and generates a series of response signals to notify the accident position to the searchers.
