Secondary surveillance radar /SSR/. I
Abstract
Various aspects of secondary surveillance radar are reviewed with attention given to its function, utilization, installation, and data display. Principles of operation are discussed with emphasis on interrogation, suppression of secondary lobes, and responses. The technical (operating frequency, antenna characteristics, power, receiver selectivity and sensitivity, parasitic signals, charge limitations, etc.) and operational (coverage, altitude, precision, separation capability) characteristics are summarized.
