THE ACCURACY OF RANGE ESTIMATION ON A PPI WITH RESPECT TO THE DISTANCE OF THE TARGET FROM RANGE RINGS.
Abstract
Four radar operators estimated the location of targets on simulated PPI's. Their data were analyzed for accuracy of range estimation as a function of target position with respect to range rings. The grouped data show that the average accuracy of estimation changes in a complex fashion as the distance from the range ring to the target increases. In general, targets near range markers and those near the center of the inter-ring distance are judged more accurately than those at other places. (Author)
