摘要 |
The invention provides a radar system in which the average power output of the radar transmitter is increased to a value above its rated mean power during a dwell time during which the radar beam traverses a target of interest. The system includes a power supply arrangement which is operative normally to supply power to the transmitter and means for supplementing the power supply during periods in which the average power output of the transmitter is increased. In one embodiment the normally operative power supply consists of a plurality of individual power supplying inverters arranged normally to supply power to the transmitter sequentially and in turn, but in unison during periods in which the average power output is increased. In the output path of each inverter is included a re-circulatory current inductive circuit such that current tends to be maintained after the inverter ceases to supply power in its turn.
