monopulse tracking system
1Monopulse radar — is an adaptation of conical scanning radar which sends additional information in the radar signal in order to avoid problems caused by rapid changes in signal strength. The system also makes jamming more difficult. Most radars designed since the… …

3Air traffic control radar beacon system — The air traffic control radar beacon system (ATCRBS) is a system used in air traffic control (ATC) to enhance radar monitoring and separation of air traffic. ATCRBS assists ATC radars by acquiring information about the aircraft being monitored,… …
4AN/FPS-16 — manned space program and the U.S. Air Force. The accuracy of Radar Set AN/FPS 16 is such that the position data obtained from point source targets has azimuth and elevation angular errors of less than 0.1 milliradian (approximately 0.006 degree)… …
5History of radar — The history of radar starts with experiments by Heinrich Hertz in the late 19th century that showed that radio waves were reflected by metallic objects. This possibility was suggested in James Clerk Maxwell s seminal work on electromagnetism.… …
6radar — /ray dahr/, n. 1. Electronics. a device for determining the presence and location of an object by measuring the time for the echo of a radio wave to return from it and the direction from which it returns. 2. a means or sense of awareness or… …
