Radar Transponder
A Radar Transponder is a device that receives and responds to radar signals. It is used in aircraft and ships to provide information about the vehicle's identity, altitude, and velocity to ground-based radar systems. The radar transponder receives the radar signal and then transmits a reply to the radar system, allowing ground controllers to track the aircraft or ship and separate it from other targets on the radar screen. They are also ideal for use in search and rescue (SAR) operations.
Radar transponders are suitable for use in both manned and unmanned vehicles. They are utilized primarily for range tracking and safety functions. The radar transponders are applicable in missiles, aircraft, space launch vehicles, sounding rockets, and drone targets.
Key Parameters of Radar Transponder:
- Operating Frequency: It is the operating frequency band of the radar transponder.
- Response Delay: It is the response time for the received radar signal, usually measured in µs (microseconds).
