Radar Antenna Height Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Antenna Height = (Range Resolution*Range)/(2*Target Height)
H_a = (ΔR*R_o)/(2*H_t)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Antenna Height - (Measured in Meter) - Antenna Height is the height of the antenna that it must be placed high above the ground in terms of the wavelength of the radio wave being transmitted.
Range Resolution - (Measured in Meter) - Range Resolution is the ability of radar system to distinguish between two or more targets on the same bearing but at different ranges.
Range - (Measured in Meter) - Range refers to the distance between the radar antenna (or the radar system) and a target or object that reflects the radar signal.
Target Height - (Measured in Meter) - Target height is defined as the distance of a target above the Earth's surface (height above ground).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Range Resolution: 9 Meter --> 9 Meter No Conversion Required
Range: 40000 Meter --> 40000 Meter No Conversion Required
Target Height: 400 Meter --> 400 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H_a = (ΔR*R_o)/(2*H_t) --> (9*40000)/(2*400)

Evaluating ... ...

H_a = 450

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

450 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

450 Meter <-- Antenna Height

Can an antenna be too high?

In general, the higher you place your antenna, the better. It would be best to have your antenna placed 30 feet above ground level to give you the clearest over-the-air connection with a tower. For those looking for that height, outdoor antennas are usually a good place to start.

How to Calculate Radar Antenna Height?

Radar Antenna Height calculator uses Antenna Height = (Range Resolution*Range)/(2*Target Height) to calculate the Antenna Height, The Radar antenna height formula is defined as the ability to communicate over long distances generally requires a low radiation angle, meaning that an antenna must be placed high above the ground in terms of the wavelength of the radio wave being transmitted. Antenna Height is denoted by H_a symbol.

How to calculate Radar Antenna Height using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Radar Antenna Height, enter Range Resolution (ΔR), Range (R_o) & Target Height (H_t) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Radar Antenna Height calculation can be explained with given input values -> 225 = (9*40000)/(2*400).

FAQ

What is Radar Antenna Height?

The Radar antenna height formula is defined as the ability to communicate over long distances generally requires a low radiation angle, meaning that an antenna must be placed high above the ground in terms of the wavelength of the radio wave being transmitted and is represented as H_a = (ΔR*R_o)/(2*H_t) or Antenna Height = (Range Resolution*Range)/(2*Target Height). Range Resolution is the ability of radar system to distinguish between two or more targets on the same bearing but at different ranges, Range refers to the distance between the radar antenna (or the radar system) and a target or object that reflects the radar signal & Target height is defined as the distance of a target above the Earth's surface (height above ground).

How to calculate Radar Antenna Height?

The Radar antenna height formula is defined as the ability to communicate over long distances generally requires a low radiation angle, meaning that an antenna must be placed high above the ground in terms of the wavelength of the radio wave being transmitted is calculated using Antenna Height = (Range Resolution*Range)/(2*Target Height). To calculate Radar Antenna Height, you need Range Resolution (ΔR), Range (R_o) & Target Height (H_t). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Range Resolution, Range & Target Height and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
