True
False
An optical horizon is the point of the earth surface which is tangential to the propagated radar wave.
True
False
The bearing accuracy is generally better than the range accuracy of a radar.
True
False
A magnetron is generally installed in the scanner unit.
True
False
The duplexer ensure that all circuits connected to the radar system operate in a definite time relationship with each other.
True
False
A bistatic RADAR is a radar system that compares the received signal from a single radar pulse against itself with an aim of comparing the signal.
True
False
A RADAR system should be capable of displaying two-point targets on the same bearing separated by 20 meters in range, as two distant objects as per performance standards of RADAR.
True
False
A radar sweep is one complete 360-degree rotation of the antenna.
True
False
Magnetron converts the input into high frequency oscillation.
True
False
The x-band RADAR is less affected by rain and fog
True
False
Attenuation causes a decrease in echo strength.
True
False
The S-band RADAR should detect a typical navigation buoy by 4.6 nautical miles minimum.

True
False
The equipment should switch automatically to the unstabilized head-up mode within two minutes after the azimuth stabilization has become ineffective.
True
False
The antenna transfers the transmitter energy to signals in space with the required distribution and efficiency.
True
False
RADAR system DO NOT have the capability of calculating the velocity of an object in motion
True
False
The RADAR should provide the means to enhance the visibility of targets in advance clutter conditions at close range.
True
False

True
False
The side lobe is the lobe containing the higher power
True
False
The function of the waveguide is to generate RF pulses.
True
False
The ARPA should be able to display on request with a relevant symbol at least three equally time-spaced past positions of any target being tracked.
True
False
Wavelength indicate the number of crest, which pass a fixed point per unit time
True
False
A 10 cm RADAR has a good performance on low altitude targets like buoy.
True
False
A short pulse means less resolution in range.
True
False
The past position of targets being tracked is used to check the validity of the ARPA’s tracking.
