Abstract:

The purpose of this test effort was to collect performance data on a phase and an amplitude type monopulse receiver that would provide a basis for comparing the relative tradeoffs of the two approaches. In particular, the thrust of this effort was to evaluate the azimuthal accuracies and the useable beamwidths of each type of receiver. It is expected that the results of the testing conducted under this effort will form part of the basis for assessing the merits of either approach if proposed for the production Mode S sensors.
