Abstract:

The patent describes a monopulse pulse width discriminator for differentiating between input signals on the basis of pulse width and amplitude, having discriminator and timing circuits which outputs gate a video track loop fed by the modified input signal. In the field of monopulse radar receivers all prior devices are unable to pulse width discriminate on instantaneous pulses. The invention provides monopulse radar receivers with this ability.
