ITU-R M.1464-2 5 Annex 1 Characteristics of aeronautical radionavigation and non-meteorological radiolocation radars 1 Introduction The frequency band 2 700-2

25、900 MHz is allocated to the aeronautical radionavigation service on a primary basis and the radiolocation service on a secondary basis. Ground-based radars used for meteorological purposes are authorized to operate in this frequency band on a basis of equality with stations in the aeronautical radio

26、navigation service (see RR No. 5.423). The frequency band 2 900-3 100 MHz is allocated to the radionavigation and radiolocation services on a primary basis. The frequency band 3 100-3 400 MHz is allocated to the radiolocation service on a primary basis. The aeronautical radionavigation radars are us

27、ed for air traffic control (ATC) at airports, and perform a safety service (see RR No. 4.10). Indications are that this is the dominant frequency band for terminal approach/airport surveillance radars for civil air traffic worldwide. 2 Technical characteristics The frequency band 2 700-2 900 MHz is

28、used by several different types of radars on land-based fixed and transportable platforms. Functions performed by radar systems in the frequency band include ATC and weather observation. Radar operating frequencies can be assumed to be uniformly spread throughout the frequency band 2 700-2 900 MHz.

29、The majority of systems use more than one frequency to achieve the benefits of frequency diversity. Two frequencies are very common and the use of four is not unknown. Table 1 contains technical characteristics of representative aeronautical radionavigation radars deployed in the frequency band 2 70

30、0-2 900 MHz. This information is sufficient for general calculation to assess the compatibility between these radars and other systems. 2.1 Transmitters The radars operating in the frequency band 2 700-2 900 MHz use continuous wave (CW) pulses and frequency modulated (chirped) pulses. Cross-field, l

31、inear beam and solid state output devices are used in the final stages of the transmitters. The trend in new radar systems is toward linear beam and solid state output devices due to the requirement of Doppler signal processing. Also, the radars deploying solid state output devices have lower transm

32、itter peak output power and higher pulsed duty cycles approaching 10%. There is also a trend towards radionavigation radar systems that use frequency diversity. Typical transmitter RF emission bandwidths of radars operating in the frequency band 2 700-2 900 MHz range from 66 kHz to 6 MHz. Transmitte

33、r peak output powers range from 22 kW (73.4 dBm) for solid state transmitters, 70 kW (78.5 dBm) for travelling wave tube (TWT) systems, to 1.4 MW (91.5 dBm) for high power radars using klystrons and magnetrons. In the high peak power systems it is normal to have a single transmitter per frequency an

34、d these tend to have narrow-band output stages. The lower peak power systems using TWTs or solid state have single transmitters capable of multifrequency operation. They thus have wideband output stages capable of multifrequency use. 6 Rec. ITU-R M.1464-2 TABLE 1 Characteristics of aeronautical radi
