Sensor emitting electromagnetic waves and operating in accordance with the principle of reflection

摘要

The invention deals with the problem of carrying out an unambiguous target discrimination on the basis of moving parts of the target or also of the fluctuation of the exhaust jet of propulsion engines. The sensor used for this purpose emits electromagnetic waves which are reflected by the target. In the case of targets with moving parts, a pulse widening occurs around the target reflection. This is evaluated and used for controlling missiles or for triggering warheads by means of target-typical features. IMAGE
