Active RF Seeker Analysis for Land Combat Seekers.

ADA111647

Publication Date	1981
Personal Author	Russell, R. F.; Garlough, R. H.
Page Count	55
Abstract	This report discusses some analysis techniques which apply to all-weather/day-night missile guidance systems against tank type targets using an RF seeker. Those techniques are examined that may be applied to obtain the proper s/c ratio and terminal accuracy, including squint, polarization and frequency discrimination. (Author)
