NAVIGATION SYSTEM

摘要

Navigation system including at least one pulse radar and a number of transponders which when receiving radar pulses transmit high frequency pulse modulated signals. When receiving an interrogating signal from the pulse radar the transponder transmits a response signal with a delay. The delay is selected in such a manner that the response signal arrives to the pulse radar within a time space lying between the moment when all signal echos, lying within a definite range, have been received and the moment when the next radar pulse begins. The display scan in the radar is delayed with the same value as the response signal. In this way the response signal competes with considerably weaker echo signals than in the case of a non delayed response.
