31
POWER REQUIREMENTS - RADARS ONLY EMIT IN A TIGHT PATTERN,
NOT 360º, SO ENERGY IS ORIGINALLY TIGHTLY FOCUSED - ONCE EMITTED THOUGH, THE ENERGY STILL DISSIPATES ACCORDING TO THE INVERSE SQUARE LAW
32
POWER REQUIREMENTS ONCE THE RADAR PULSES BOUNCE OFF AN AIRCRAFT,
THE POWER IS REDUCED BY THE SQUARE OF THE DISTANCE AGAIN, RESULTING IN A POWER DECREASE = r 4! DOUBLING THE DISTANCE RESULTS IN 24 LESS ENERGY = 1/16th THE POWER TEN TIMES THE DISTANCE RESULTS IN 104 LESS ENERGY = 1/10,000 THE POWER!
33
POWER REQUIREMENTS WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?
- TRANSMITTERS NEED TO EMIT A LOT OF POWER - RECEIVERS NEED TO BE ABLE TO DETECT VERY WEAK RETURNS *** THE LARGER THE ANTENNA RECEIVER, THE MORE SENSITIVE

RADAR ELECTRONIC COUNTERMEASURES (ECM)
TWO TYPES: - PASSIVE COUNTERMEASURES: - REFLECTORS - CHAFF - DECOYS - STEALTH - ACTIVE COUNTERMEASURES - HARD KILL - JAMMING
46
PASSIVE ECM REFLECTORS: REFELCTORS ON THE AIRCRAFT CAUSE
SPURIOUS RETURNS THAT MAY CONFUSE SOME OLDER RADARS
47
PASSIVE ECM DECOYS: RELEASE DECOYS WITH THE SAME RADAR CROSS SECTION AS THE AIRCRAFT SO RADAR DOESN’T KNOW WHICH IS THE REAL ONE
48
PASSIVE ECM CHAFF: CHAFF REFLECTS THE RADAR SIGNAL BACK ALSO, HIDING
THE AIRCRAFT IN A “CLOUD” OF RETURNS *** CHAFF MUST BE CUT TO SPECIFIC LENGTHS ACCORDING TO THE WAVELANGTH () OF THE TARGET RADAR(S) (LENGTH = / 2 )
49
PASSIVE ECM STEALTH: STEALTH ABSORBS SOME OF THE ENERGY
AND REFLECTS THE REST OF THE SIGNALS AWAY FROM THE RADAR
50

75
ACTIVE ECCM - JAMMING ALIGNMENT: Antenna Nulling Jammer B A
Target Aircraft Distance B is longer than distance A, so left side of the antenna receives the signal later than the right, this tells the computer that the signal is coming from the right of the antenna. B A Antenna Nulling
76
ACTIVE ECCM - JAMMING ALIGNMENT: Antenna Nulling Jammer
Target Aircraft The computer can then ignore all signals coming from that direction. (Ignores the jamming) Antenna Nulling
77
ACTIVE ECCM - JAMMING ALIGNMENT: Antenna Nulling Jammer
Target Aircraft Ignored With the jamming ignored from the right, the target aircraft is again visible. The jammer must be aligned with the target aircraft to avoid antenna nullling. Antenna Nulling

AS OBJECT GETS CLOSER TO RADAR, THE RETURN GETS STRONGER UNTIL IT SHOWS THROUGH THE JAMMING NATURAL NOISE + JAMMING SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO (S/N) 1 FREQUENCY THE POINT AT WHICH THE SIGNAL EXCEEDS THE JAMMER’S POWER IS KNOWN AS THE “BURN THROUGH” RANGE

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
About 1500 high- power pulses per second are transmitted toward the target or imaging area Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) refers to a technique used to synthesize a very long antenna by combining signals (echoes) received by the radar as it moves along its flight track.
87
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
Each Radar return is “synthesized” into a High Resolution, 3D image Requires high speed computers and a lot of computer processing capability Can see at night and through cloud cover, dust, smoke, etc. with near picture quality imaging
