C (G)-Band & X (I) - Band Noncoherent Radar Transponder Performance Specification Standard

Abstract

This document sets forth the minimum transponder parameter requirements for both C (G)-band and X (1)-band, noncoherent, pulse-type transponder sets that any instrumentation tracking radar on any test range may use. The transponder set consists of a receiver and a transmitter with integral power supply. The function of this transponder set is to extend tracking range, increase precision, improve target tracking identification, and to extend the low-level tracking capability of precision tracking C (G)-band instrumentation radar sets such as the AN/FPS-16, AN/MPS-36, and X (I)-band radar sets such as the NIKE Hercules, and others.
