    摘要: A coherent pulse doppler altimeter system employing a single antenna wherein the transmit signal is a generated series of pulses the pulse width and repetition frequency of which are varied keeping the average power high although peak transmitter power can be low enough to permit utilization of all solid state components. The ground return pulse will have a doppler shift caused by the vertical component of the aircraft velocity and a doppler spread due to the horizontal velocity. The receiver is tuned to receive the first side band of the return signal. The receiver is range gated by a gate pulse which is varied as the pulse repetition frequency (PRF) is varied so that just the leading edge of a return pulse passes through the gate. Variations in PRF are controlled by the tracking of that leading edge by the range gate. The PRF is then counted to give altitude.
