Scan strategy and signal characteristics of the mt. Macaion radar. Different Pulse Request Frequency (PRF), Power and rotation speeds are used in low and high elevation scans. Low elevation scans perform slower rotation (9°/s), use higher pulse frequency (1200) and lower power (281 kW), while high elevation scans perform fast rotation (28°/s), use low pulse frequency (310) and higher power (307 kW). The maximum terrain altitude for each range bin is reported in gray, showing that substantial beam blocking is encountered at lower elevations (0–2 degrees).
