21 INVERSE SQUARE LAW EMITTED POWER IS RADIATED AS A SPHERE,
IT’S POWER PER SQ METER DECREASES AS THE SPHERE GETS BIGGER

22 INVERSE SQUARE LAW EMITTED POWER IS RADIATED AS A SPHERE,
IT’S POWER PER SQ METER DECREASES AS THE SPHERE GETS BIGGER

23 INVERSE SQUARE LAW EMITTED POWER IS RADIATED AS A SPHERE,
IT’S POWER PER SQ METER DECREASES AS THE SPHERE GETS BIGGER

24 INVERSE SQUARE LAW EMITTED POWER IS RADIATED AS A SPHERE,
IT’S POWER PER SQ METER DECREASES AS THE SPHERE GETS BIGGER SAME AMOUNT OF POWER IS SPREAD OVER A LARGER AND LARGER AREA

25 INVERSE SQUARE LAW EMITTED POWER IS RADIATED AS A SPHERE,
IT’S POWER PER SQ METER DECREASES AS THE SPHERE GETS BIGGER SAME AMOUNT OF POWER IS SPREAD OVER A LARGER AND LARGER AREA

26 INVERSE SQUARE LAW EMITTED POWER IS RADIATED AS A SPHERE,
IT’S POWER PER SQ METER DECREASES AS THE SPHERE GETS BIGGER SAME AMOUNT OF POWER IS SPREAD OVER A LARGER AND LARGER AREA

27 INVERSE SQUARE LAW r INVERSE SQUARE LAW: AREA OF A SPHERE = 4  r2
AREA INCREASES AS THE SQUARE OF THE RADIUS AREA OF A SPHERE = 4  r2 r POWER / M2 = POWER RADIATED / AREA OF SPHERE

28 INVERSE SQUARE LAW r INVERSE SQUARE LAW: AREA OF A SPHERE = 4  r2
AREA INCREASES AS THE SQUARE OF THE RADIUS AREA OF A SPHERE = 4  r2 DOUBLE THE RADIUS, AREA INCREASES 4X AND 1/4 THE POWER TEN TIMES THE RADIUS, AREA INCREASES 100X AND 1/100 THE POWER r POWER / M2 = POWER RADIATED / AREA OF SPHERE

- Power Requirements - Electronic Counter Measures (ECM/ECCM) - Bistatic or Multistatic Radar - Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) - Phased Array Radar - LIDAR - Summary

31 POWER REQUIREMENTS - RADARS ONLY EMIT IN A TIGHT PATTERN,
NOT 360º, SO ENERGY IS ORIGINALLY TIGHTLY FOCUSED - ONCE EMITTED THOUGH, THE ENERGY STILL DISSIPATES ACCORDING TO THE INVERSE SQUARE LAW

32 POWER REQUIREMENTS ONCE THE RADAR PULSES BOUNCE OFF AN AIRCRAFT,
THE POWER IS REDUCED BY THE SQUARE OF THE DISTANCE AGAIN, RESULTING IN A POWER DECREASE = r 4! DOUBLING THE DISTANCE RESULTS IN 24 LESS ENERGY = 1/16th THE POWER TEN TIMES THE DISTANCE RESULTS IN 104 LESS ENERGY = 1/10,000 THE POWER!

33 POWER REQUIREMENTS WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?
- TRANSMITTERS NEED TO EMIT A LOT OF POWER - RECEIVERS NEED TO BE ABLE TO DETECT VERY WEAK RETURNS *** THE LARGER THE ANTENNA RECEIVER, THE MORE SENSITIVE

45 RADAR ELECTRONIC COUNTERMEASURES (ECM)
TWO TYPES: - PASSIVE COUNTERMEASURES: - REFLECTORS - CHAFF - DECOYS - STEALTH - ACTIVE COUNTERMEASURES - HARD KILL - JAMMING

46 PASSIVE ECM REFLECTORS: REFELCTORS ON THE AIRCRAFT CAUSE
SPURIOUS RETURNS THAT MAY CONFUSE SOME OLDER RADARS

47 PASSIVE ECM DECOYS: RELEASE DECOYS WITH THE SAME RADAR CROSS SECTION AS THE AIRCRAFT SO RADAR DOESN’T KNOW WHICH IS THE REAL ONE

48 PASSIVE ECM CHAFF: CHAFF REFLECTS THE RADAR SIGNAL BACK ALSO, HIDING
THE AIRCRAFT IN A “CLOUD” OF RETURNS *** CHAFF MUST BE CUT TO SPECIFIC LENGTHS ACCORDING TO THE WAVELANGTH () OF THE TARGET RADAR(S) (LENGTH =  / 2 )

49 PASSIVE ECM STEALTH: STEALTH ABSORBS SOME OF THE ENERGY
AND REFLECTS THE REST OF THE SIGNALS AWAY FROM THE RADAR

THE STRIKERS TO EFFECTIVELY JAM RADAR WITH SIDLOBE SUPRESSION SCOPE DEPICTION

75 ACTIVE ECCM - JAMMING ALIGNMENT: Antenna Nulling Jammer B A
Target Aircraft Distance B is longer than distance A, so left side of the antenna receives the signal later than the right, this tells the computer that the signal is coming from the right of the antenna. B A Antenna Nulling

76 ACTIVE ECCM - JAMMING ALIGNMENT: Antenna Nulling Jammer
Target Aircraft The computer can then ignore all signals coming from that direction. (Ignores the jamming) Antenna Nulling

77 ACTIVE ECCM - JAMMING ALIGNMENT: Antenna Nulling Jammer
Target Aircraft Ignored With the jamming ignored from the right, the target aircraft is again visible. The jammer must be aligned with the target aircraft to avoid antenna nullling. Antenna Nulling

78 ACTIVE ECCM - JAMMING ALIGNMENT: Antenna Nulling Jammer Target
Aircraft Ignored With proper alignment, the computer strips the jamming and the target aircraft returns, once again masking the target. Antenna Nulling
