Target Height Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Variables Used

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

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
Antenna Height: 450 Meter --> 450 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H_t = (ΔR*R_o)/(2*H_a) --> (9*40000)/(2*450)

Evaluating ... ...

H_t = 400

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

400 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

400 Meter <-- Target Height

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 Target Height?

Target Height calculator uses Target Height = (Range Resolution*Range)/(2*Antenna Height) to calculate the Target Height, The Target height formula is defined as the distance of a target above the Earth's surface (height above ground). The height can be calculated from the target distance R and the elevation angle ε. Target Height is denoted by H_t symbol.

How to calculate Target Height using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Target Height, enter Range Resolution (ΔR), Range (R_o) & Antenna Height (H_a) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Target Height calculation can be explained with given input values -> 400 = (9*40000)/(2*450).

FAQ

What is Target Height?

The Target height formula is defined as the distance of a target above the Earth's surface (height above ground). The height can be calculated from the target distance R and the elevation angle ε and is represented as H_t = (ΔR*R_o)/(2*H_a) or Target Height = (Range Resolution*Range)/(2*Antenna 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 & 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.

How to calculate Target Height?

The Target height formula is defined as the distance of a target above the Earth's surface (height above ground). The height can be calculated from the target distance R and the elevation angle ε is calculated using Target Height = (Range Resolution*Range)/(2*Antenna Height). To calculate Target Height, you need Range Resolution (ΔR), Range (R_o) & Antenna Height (H_a). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Range Resolution, Range & Antenna Height and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
