1. Introduction 1.1 Radar types Radar Equipment Use the radar only as a navigation aid. The crucial decisions about navigation must always be made by the operator. Navigating only by radar can lead to accidents such as collisions or grounding. There are two technologies that apply to radar, pulse and solid state (Chirp) Pulse Radar Pulse radar uses a magnetron to create the transmitter pulse.
Have tried to show this graphically in time axis, the lowest frequencies are delayed the most as it is the one that was sent out first and goes through all the delay circuits. Higher frequencies are delayed less so that the echoes with different frequency come through the receiver at the same time and at the end of the receiver are summed and mixed into one strong echo.
Separation in bearing If there are two echoes next to each other, the radar «beam» must leave the first echo before it hits target no. 2 to be able to separate the echoes from each other. Minimum detection distance If the antenna is placed high, the echo approaching the boat will come under the radar beam and thus not appear in the radar image.
Estimated range on radar Since the radar beam is not normally deflected much, it can be said that the height of the antenna and the height of the target determine the range (+ that the target gives a usable stable echo) ...
1.3 Echo treatment / filtration NB! In order for the filter to work optimally, the gyro signal should reach 50 times / sec as well as the correct speed indication from Log and GPS. Sea noise suppression (STC) and Gain amplification. These two functions are related to the fact that Gain indicates the maximum gain used and STC reduces this at short range.
Page 11
Echo magnification Echo magnification Enhance echo is selected level from Off to level3. this makes the echoes a little bigger. This happens both in distance detection and bearing [azimuth]. For distance, each measuring point is checked and compared with the nearest ones, in the drawing below the measuring point with echo is shown as X, echo that is magnified is shown with o.
1.4 Fast moving targets and SART Procedure for detecting moving echoes The radar has a feature for improving the detection of fast-moving radar echoes. Fast Target Detection See menu under MENY + Setting Undermeny Oppsett Setting meny Echo Signal process Video Latitude Normal Receiver Band Width...
