WHITE PAPER SUMMARY

The following is a list of the white papers with a brief description of their contents:

NOTE: Most of these were written to address a specific interest. There is some repetition and overlapping in several papers.
 

• White Paper #1: Naval Radar Handoff and Boresighting 

Discusses the angular data accuracy of a naval acquisition radar, a fire control radar and the angular alignment to optimize hand-off. Also brief discussion of the alignment of the radar antenna axis to the cannon bore axis. 

• White Paper #2: Radar Handoff 

Discusses the "netting" of several fire control radar systems with other trackers. 

• White Paper #3: Fredwal "Doppler Radar" Targets 

Discusses the Fredwal Doppler radar targets. 

• White Paper #4: Fredwal "Racor" Radar Calibration Target 

Discusses the "Racor" (offset frequency/coherent return) radar targets. 

• White Paper #5: Airport Surveillance Radar, Runway Centerline MTI/Doppler Targets 

Discusses radar runway centerline marker for air traffic control - airport surveillance radars.
Discusses a passive target for an unattended airport to allow approaching aircraft to line up with the runway centerline.

• White Paper #6: Accu-Phase Coherent Antenna Patterning System:
  
  Discusses a low-cost means of testing phased array antennas without removal of the radar system.

• White Paper #7: Complex Radar Doppler Signal Development
  
  Discusses a means of generating the complex modulation of various helicopter radar returns for use  in recognition training or equipment verification.
