Electronic engineering

D scope

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A radar whose display resembles that of a C scope, the difference being that blip height gives an approximation of the distance.

A-scan

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A radar-screen presentation in which the horizontal time axis displays distance or range, and the vertical axis displays the amplitude of signal pulse and echo pulses.

cardioid pattern

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A radiation/response pattern with one sharp null in the direction opposite the single main lobe. The lobe is extremely broad. In two dimensions, the curve is shaped somewhat like a “Valentine” ...

active system

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A radio and/or radar system that requires transmitting equipment to be carried in a vehicle.

command network

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A radio communications network in which the chain of command is rigorously defined and followed.

double-coil direction finder

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A radio direction finder (RDF) using an antenna that consists of two identical, perpendicular coils. The directivity of the antenna is the resultant of the directivity of the individual coils.
