Table 9. Peak Power Test Results
5.1.2. Transmission / Reception Mode (Horizontal and Vertical) Verification Procedure
1. Apply power to the radar system. Verify or select the following settings.
• Point of Control
–
REMOTE
• Modulator Power
–
On
• Radiate Power - Off
2. Obtain control of the radar system using the EDGE host workstation in the Surveillance
mode of operation.
3. Select the 100 µs pulsewidth mode of operation.
4. Using the EDGE A-scope utility open two A-scope windows. Select the Horizontal
received data in one A-scope window and the vertical received data in the second.
5. With the system still in the radiate or data simulation mode verify ground clutter or
simulated data is observable in each A-scope window.
5.1.3. Operating Range and Range Resolution Verification Procedure
1. Apply power to the radar system. Verify or select the following settings.
• Point of Control
–
REMOTE
• Modulator Power
–
On
• Radiate Power - Off
2. Obtain control of the radar system using the EDGE host workstation in the Surveillance
mode of operation.
3. Set the data range to a value of 45 kilometers.
4. Select a gate width/range resolution of 15.625 meters.
5. Using the EDGE A-scope utility open two A-scope windows. Select the Horizontal
received data in one A-scope window and the vertical received data in the second.
6. With the system still in the radiate mode, verify the presence of ground clutter in each A-
scope window.
7. Change the gate width/range resolution to 31.25 meters.
8. Change the data range value to 100 kilometers.
9. Verify the data resolution and range of the A-scope changes to match the selected gate
resolution.
10. Complete the following table to indicate a range resolution selection of < 50 meters is
available for data acquired up to 100 kilometers.
