Range Resolution Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Variables Used

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.
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.
Target Height - (Measured in Meter) - Target height is defined as the distance of a target above the Earth's surface (height above ground).
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Antenna Height: 450 Meter --> 450 Meter No Conversion Required
Target Height: 400 Meter --> 400 Meter No Conversion Required
Range: 40000 Meter --> 40000 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ΔR = (2*H_a*H_t)/R_o --> (2*450*400)/40000

Evaluating ... ...

ΔR = 9

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

9 Meter <-- Range Resolution

LaTeX Go Amplitude of Signal Received = Echo Signal Voltage/(sin((2*pi*(Carrier Frequency+Doppler Frequency Shift)*Time Period)-((4*pi*Carrier Frequency*Range)/[c])))

Amplitude of Reference Signal

LaTeX Go Amplitude of Reference Signal = CW Oscillator Reference Voltage/(sin(2*pi*Angular Frequency*Time Period))

Reference Voltage of CW Oscillator

LaTeX Go CW Oscillator Reference Voltage = Amplitude of Reference Signal*sin(2*pi*Angular Frequency*Time Period)

Doppler Frequency Shift

LaTeX Go Doppler Frequency Shift = (2*Target Velocity)/Wavelength

Range Resolution Formula

LaTeX Go

Range Resolution = (2*Antenna Height*Target Height)/Range
ΔR = (2*H_a*H_t)/R_o

Are there any restrictions on what Still-pipe Material can be used?

Any type of conductive material can be used as long as it is compatible with the process media.If the material is not conductive it will be transparent to the radar-beams and therefore it will have no effect.

How to Calculate Range Resolution?

Range Resolution calculator uses Range Resolution = (2*Antenna Height*Target Height)/Range to calculate the Range Resolution, The Range resolution formula is defined as the ability of radar system to distinguish between two or more targets on the same bearing but at different ranges. The degree of range resolution depends on the width of the transmitted pulse, the types and sizes of targets, and the efficiency of the receiver and indicator. Range Resolution is denoted by ΔR symbol.

How to calculate Range Resolution using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Range Resolution, enter Antenna Height (H_a), Target Height (H_t) & Range (R_o) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Range Resolution calculation can be explained with given input values -> 18 = (2*450*400)/40000.

FAQ

What is Range Resolution?

The Range resolution formula is defined as the ability of radar system to distinguish between two or more targets on the same bearing but at different ranges. The degree of range resolution depends on the width of the transmitted pulse, the types and sizes of targets, and the efficiency of the receiver and indicator and is represented as ΔR = (2*H_a*H_t)/R_o or Range Resolution = (2*Antenna Height*Target Height)/Range. 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, Target height is defined as the distance of a target above the Earth's surface (height above ground) & Range refers to the distance between the radar antenna (or the radar system) and a target or object that reflects the radar signal.

How to calculate Range Resolution?

The Range resolution formula is defined as the ability of radar system to distinguish between two or more targets on the same bearing but at different ranges. The degree of range resolution depends on the width of the transmitted pulse, the types and sizes of targets, and the efficiency of the receiver and indicator is calculated using Range Resolution = (2*Antenna Height*Target Height)/Range. To calculate Range Resolution, you need Antenna Height (H_a), Target Height (H_t) & Range (R_o). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Antenna Height, Target Height & Range and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
