TM TM ETD (Enhanced Target Detection) significantly enhances the display of all targets without interfering with the normal Radar appearance or operation. It treats stationary and moving returns differently, highlighting the moving ones by displaying them in a different colour. ETD combined with the dual PPI mode enables the operator to continue using the Radar in the normal way with the addition of a simultaneous advanced detection view available on the secondary PPI without cluttering the main display. This mode can significantly enhace normal operation but is also of great benefit in ice...

Transceivers Transceiver Types Low-Profile Technology The MantadigitalTM range includes both magnetron and solidstate Radar transceivers. In both cases the latest low-profile anntennas are used to reduce wind loading and increase inservice life. Upmast and downmast options are available in both X and S-Band for the magnetron transceivers. In all cases high reliability and performance have been the design criteria. In all systems a transmission monitor is provided as standard. Peak Power 10kW Frequency 25kW Using the latest technology all Kelvin Hughes antennas use the polyrod lens...

SharpEyeTM Benefits SharpEyeTM Transceivers § § § § § In addition to the range of S and X-Band magnetron based transceivers MantaDigitalTM includes the option of transceivers using the latest solidstate SharpEyeTM technology. How Does SharpEyeTM Work ? SharpEyeTM is a radical departure from convention due to its low power solid-state architecture. Traditional navigation Radars use short high power (typically 25-30 kW) pulses of microwave energy to detect objects on the sea surface, SharpEyeTM transceivers have a nominal peak output power into the antenna of just 200 W, operating with duty...
