reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0651453 | Need Help?

Abstract:

The critical factors involved in the installation and operation of low range radar altimeters are analyzed with particular emphasis on the reliable and accurate measurement and display of radar altitude, under specified operating conditions. The analysis reflects the limiting factors for optimum operation of both pulse and FM-CW low range altimeters in terms which may be readily inspected and verified on the aircraft. Author
