Integrated Circuit Design of a Video Reconstructor for a Range-Gated Moving Target Indicator.

Abstract

The video reconstructor circuit (VRC) of the channelized or range gated moving target indicator (RGF/MTI) is designed for integration or a single dual in-line integrated circuit package (DIP). The developed chip model is tested and its performance evaluated for a wide range of operating conditions. The tests indicate that the model offers superior performance over the RGF using discrete components. An extension of this technique offers opportunities in reducing the majority of the remaining channel elements to chip size. For many MTI applications this will yield still additional benefits. Full TTL compatibility of the design makes the device easily controllable with digital logic. The threshold voltage setting, the output gate control and the integration time constant can be set by software or firmware. (Author)
