(This is sometimes called a pulse train) & Figure 1.1 Train of transmitted and received pulses vee eve 86 So Dee In general, pulse radar transmits and receives a train of pulses, as illustrated in figure 1.1. The Inter Pulse Period (IPP) is T, and the pulse width is 1. The IPP is often referred to as Pulse Repetition Interval (PRI). The inverse of PRI is PRF, denoted by fr. fr=1/PRI=1/T During each PRI the radar radiates energy only for T seconds and listens for target returns for the rest of the PRI. The Radar transmitting duty cycle dt is defined as the ratio d= 4/1. The radar average transmitted power is a : Pav= Ptxdt 9 Where Pt is radar peak power, The pulse energy is 2 Ep=Pt t= Pay T= Pav/fr SCILAB Code and Results: Secalculate range of radar cle ; 200*10* -6; % timedelayinsec a vee ttosityiam/s =( Vo* Tdelay ) /2; %Range o fthe targetinmts > R=R/1000;% inkms ° . disp(range of radar’) 9 disp(R) %6%6%0%0%%%%F NDING DUTY CYCLE PRT PULSE WIDTH PULSE ENERGY 3 Pt=5000; %Peak tx power in watts Pav =1000; %Average Power PRF1 = 10; %Pulserepetitionfrequencyinkhz E %Duty cycle PRFI ;%Pulserepetitiveintervalinmsec * PRII ; %Puls e Width in msec =Pt*PW1;%PulseEnergyinjoules disp(‘duty cycle’) disp(D) disp(‘pulse repetition time in msec’) disp(PRI1) disp('pulse energy in joule’) disp(PE1 WANA /Range Resolutio UR =200; %unambiguous r ang e i n kms *10%6; Ybandwidth i n hz *10°8; Yvelocityinm/s PRF =V0/(2* UR *10°3) ;%pulserepetitionfrequency inhz PRI=1/PRF; %pulserepetitionintervalinsec RR=VO /(2* BW); %Range Re solutioninmts PW =(2* RR) V0); %pul se width disp(‘range resolution in mts') disp(RR) 2 e vv & 6 & 2 & © & SF & @ we ’ 8s uw Se. y eo 2. 8&2 82 S » - a a cow eee ef ee eS oC - Experiment 02 Aim: Computation of Radar Equation using SCILAB.
