  • Aircraft radar arrangement
    Patent number: 4695842
    Abstract: For an aircraft radar arrangement, particularly helicopters, a first frequency is provided at a maximum of atmospheric attenuation and a second frequency near the first frequency in a region of less atmospheric attenuation, preferably at 60 GHz and 50 GHz. The first frequency serves to provide obstacle warnings, the second to provide for moving target detection and navigation. The mm wave components of the arrangement can substantially be used for both frequencies so that significant savings in weight, space and costs result.
