Effect of Multipath on the Height-Finding Capabilities of a Fixed-Reflector Radar System. Part 3:Effect of Radome.

摘要

It has been demonstrated that the ribs of the CW-396A radome have a negligible effect on the L -band elevation plane radiation pattern and consequently on the altitude error curves for the air-search radar discussed in Part 2of this report (RADC-TR-215). In particular,the radome produces grating lobes that are approximately 30dB below the main beam level. (Author)
