The MTI Conversion Unit for SR-3 and SPS-6 Radars

Abstract

The MTI Conversion Unit for the SC-SK series radars has been redesigned for application to the newer SR-3 and SPS-6 radars. This new system achieves a cancellation ratio of 30 db and includes velocity compensation by coherent oscillator phase rotation. Although performance tests are not complete, it is expected to give a subclutter visibility of 25 to 28 db for speeds below 30 knots and 20 to 25 db for speeds from 30 to 40 knots.
