Abstract

In an airborne frequency-modulation radar designed for the homing head of a guided missile, enhanced resolution both in distance and in velocity is obtained by making use of a solid-state transmitter in conjunction with a frequency-modulating oscillator and by means of a receiver comprising a controlled frequency-shift oscillator.
