<strong>Compact</strong> <strong>Tracking</strong> <strong>Radar</strong> CTR-37250X<br />
compact tracking radar<br />
The <strong>Compact</strong> <strong>Tracking</strong> <strong>Radar</strong> (CTR) is a 3-<br />
channel monopulse X-band tracking radar<br />
designed for installation on existing electrooptical<br />
tracking mounts. While the CTR<br />
provides a single station X-Band TSPI solution<br />
for optical mounts, the CTR also provides<br />
signifcant enhancement in mission support<br />
capability for KTM style optical platforms.<br />
Enhancements, such as greater range<br />
coverage, tracking in poor visibility and<br />
provision of Doppler data on one or multiple<br />
targets in the beam will increase the<br />
versatility, capability, usefulness and<br />
customer appeal of your optical platforms<br />
and range instrumentation capabilities.<br />
Integrating the CTR modification involves<br />
installing five major elements into the existing<br />
system:<br />
•Antenna: Monopulse, prime focus front<br />
fed, approximate 1.2 meter diameter<br />
•Transmitter/Receiver Unit (T/R Unit):<br />
Incorporates the transmitter, microwave<br />
receiver and local oscillator synthesizer<br />
into a single environmentall controlled<br />
chassis.<br />
•<strong>Radar</strong> Signal Processor: Provides all IF<br />
receiver and range tracking functions<br />
within a single 19-inch rack mounted VME<br />
enclosure.<br />
•<strong>Tracking</strong> Mount Computer (TMC):<br />
Utilizes VME 6U x 160mm architecture<br />
coupled with Motorola Power-PC CPU<br />
technology to provide a near commercial<br />
off-the-shelf (COTS) tracking mount<br />
computer solution.<br />
•Operator Console: Consists of an<br />
industrial grade computer, flat panel<br />
touchscreen, and joystick mounted into a<br />
single 19” rack mountable chassis. (May<br />
be remotely located over extended<br />
distances
