Abstract:

This report describes use of the Data ProcessingHAPDAR Field Test Facility as an adjunct to Passive Jammer Locator experiments by Syracuse University Research Corporation SURC at White Sands Missile Range, N. M. The Data ProcessingHAPDAR Facility consists of a specially programmed IBM 36065 Computer operating with the Sperry Rand HAPDAR Hardpoint Demonstration Array Radar at WSMR. The Passive Jammer Locator experiments were performed by an ABMDA team with representatives from SURC, Sperry, and RCA. The Data ProcessingHAPDAR Facility was equipped with special programming and was linked to other WSMR sensors. The HAPDAR antenna and a remote RONDO facility were used to seek test jammers and to record jamming signals.
