AN Improved Range Error Detection System for MK 50 Simultaneous Lobing Radar

Abstract

A description is given of a range error detection system with a high degree of noise balance, wide frequency response, and output stability, to improve the automatic tracking stability of the MK 50 Simultaneous Lobing Radar. Parallel, cascade gates and a differential transformer are used to achieve a d-c noise balance of nearly 40 db. A relatively low impedance, drift-free output without the use of a cathode follower or d-c amplifier is obtained with a single wide-gate output. Bench tests of the system are shown and analyzed.
