TECHNICAL MANUAL FOR QRC-94A-1(T) VIDEO CORRELATOR

Abstract

A handbook is presented to provide complete instructions for operating and maintaining the QRC-94A-1(T) video correlator. The QRC-94A-1(T) is designed to increase the probability of detection of the AN/APS-45 radar set. The correlator enables the radar indicator to display a darker presentation by eliminating all non-synchronous signals. The design criteria for this compact, light weight, fabricated unit was simplicity of operation with a high degree of stability and reliability. This correlator model is designed for integration with the AN/APS-45 radar set. This radar set has a pulse width of 1.8 microseconds and a pulse repetition rate of 450 PPS(2222 microsecond interpulse period). The QRC-94A-1(T) provides the following functions: (1) processes the video to reduce the effects of sea clutter and interference, (2) generates the radar range marks, (3) provides the radar system trigger, and (4) provides a test target signal for alignment and test purposes.
