Abstract :
The possible functions of airborne radar are briefly reviewed. Consideration of the basic design problems of a system intended primarily for (1) Detection of cumulo-nimbus clouds, (2) High ground avoidance, and (3) Map painting, indicates that a power of 10 kW at 3 cm with a 6-deg beam width is adequate. It is shown also that a roll and pitch stabilization of the scanning axis is essential. A general description of a suitable equipment is followed by a summary of results of trials.
