(20 points) In this problem, we're trying to determine the performance of two nearby radars. We will need to generate antenna patterns (uniform illumination, I2 spacing) for both radars and determine power densities and SNRs.
Radar 1
i. Frequency =3GHz
ii. Peak power =100kW
iii. Uniform Linear Array -
length =2 meters
iv. Transmit Loss =2dB
Radar 2
v. Frequency =3GHz
vi. Peak power =1000W
vii. Circular array - diameter =0.5 meters
viii. Duty 10%
ix. Dwell time =1ms
x. Noise Figure =4.5dB
xi. Total System Losses =10dB
xii. Bandwidth =1MHz
a.(10 points) Radar 2 is turned on. Calculate the Radar 2 SNR on a 0 dBsm target 10 km from Radar 2(at broadside). Answer should be in dBs.
b.(10 points) Radar 1 is turned on and Radar 2 is turned off.
i. Calculate the Radar 1 power density (Wm2) arriving at the antenna face of Radar 2 as illustrated below.
ii. If Radar 1 is rotated 45 and is pointing directly at Radar 2, does that impact the power density arriving at Radar 2's antenna face? If so, how?
