Radar B-Scope
| An B-Scope shows a
picture like a Cartesian diagram. The
abscissa is the
measurement of the bearing (azimuth), and the
ordinate is the
measurement of the range. This form of the monitors is
preferred with fire-control radars. The center of the bearing usually is movable through hand wheels. The antenna turntable then is turned into the new direction. The screens middle is defined as the main reception direction of the antenna normally. The bearing area is covered through an electro-mechanical one or electronic beam steering. |
