Question
Calculate range resolution of a synthetic aperture radar, if the pulse width is 3μsec.
(Assume c = 3 x 10^8 m/s)
450m
900m
300m
600m
Solution
The range resolution of a radar system can be calculated using the formula:
Range Resolution = c * Pulse Width / 2
where:
- c is the speed of light (3 x 10^8 m/s)
- Pulse Width is the duration of the pulse (3μsec = 3 x 10^-6 s)
Substituting the given values into the formula:
Range Resolution = 3 x 10^8 m/s * 3 x 10^-6 s / 2 Range Resolution = 450 m
So, the range resolution of the synthetic aperture radar is 450m.
