Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a radar with a pulse width of 1 ms and a PRT of 10 ms. Calculate the maximum PRF of this radar and discuss the impact on unambiguous range.

💡 Hint: Refer to the PRF and how pulse width affects detection.

Challenge 2 Hard

If a radar system needs to detect targets up to a distance of 500 km, what should be the maximum PRT for unambiguous detection? Use the speed of light in your calculations.

💡 Hint: Think about round-trip time calculations to ensure echoes return without overlap.
