Pulse Repetition Frequency Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Pulse Repetition Frequency = [c]/(2*Maximum Unambiguous Range)
frep = [c]/(2*Run)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Variables
Constants Used
[c] - Light speed in vacuum Value Taken As 299792458.0
Variables Used
Pulse Repetition Frequency - (Measured in Hertz) - Pulse Repetition Frequency refers to the number of pulses transmitted by the radar system in one second.
Maximum Unambiguous Range - (Measured in Meter) - Maximum Unambiguous Range is the range beyond which the target appears as second-time-around-echoes is the maximum unambiguous range.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Maximum Unambiguous Range: 8.79 Kilometer --> 8790 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
frep = [c]/(2*Run) --> [c]/(2*8790)
Evaluating ... ...
frep = 17053.0408418658
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
17053.0408418658 Hertz --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
17053.0408418658 17053.04 Hertz <-- Pulse Repetition Frequency
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is PRT and PRF?

PRF stands for Pulse Repetition Frequency. It is equal to number of pulses which are transmitted per second. PRT stands for Pulse Repetition Time. The time between beginning of one pulse and start of next pulse is known as Pulse Repetition Time. The PRF and PRT are related as per following equation

How to Calculate Pulse Repetition Frequency?

Pulse Repetition Frequency calculator uses Pulse Repetition Frequency = [c]/(2*Maximum Unambiguous Range) to calculate the Pulse Repetition Frequency, The Pulse Repetition Frequency formula is defined as the frequency by which pulse has to be released to reach its target. Pulse Repetition Frequency is denoted by frep symbol.

Here is how the Pulse Repetition Frequency calculation can be explained with given input values -> 170.5304 = [c]/(2*8790).

FAQ

What is Pulse Repetition Frequency?
The Pulse Repetition Frequency formula is defined as the frequency by which pulse has to be released to reach its target and is represented as frep = [c]/(2*Run) or Pulse Repetition Frequency = [c]/(2*Maximum Unambiguous Range). Maximum Unambiguous Range is the range beyond which the target appears as second-time-around-echoes is the maximum unambiguous range.
How to calculate Pulse Repetition Frequency?
The Pulse Repetition Frequency formula is defined as the frequency by which pulse has to be released to reach its target is calculated using Pulse Repetition Frequency = [c]/(2*Maximum Unambiguous Range). To calculate Pulse Repetition Frequency, you need Maximum Unambiguous Range (Run). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Maximum Unambiguous Range and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
