ISSUE/REVISION DATE: June 8, 2000 TECHNICAL MANUALVOLUME 2, PART 3T3-35718 3-3-1PART 3TECHNICAL THEORYCHAPTER 3TRANSMITTER, EEC-127801-1003-3-1  TRANSMITTER BLOCK DIAGRAM DESCRIPTIONFigure 3-3-1 is a block diagram of the transmitter and Figure 3-3-2 is the RF subsystem components.Both should be referred to during this discussion.  The transmitter is located in the transmitter cabinet,Unit 2, and contains the components that generate RF energy.  The word “transmitter” is used toencompass all the modulator circuitry including the magnetron, and the RF components.  Specifically,the transmitter includes the modulator power supply, solid-state modulator, filament transformer,magnetron filament filter, constant voltage transformer, magnetron, magnetron and modulator meteringcircuits, control circuits, trigger distribution module, control panel, and waveguide components.Whether in track mode, beacon mode, or weather mode operation, triggering of the transmitter occurswith the introduction of modulator triggers to the transmitter from within the Tracking Console, Unit 1.Trigger timing and the selected pulsewidth jointly determine the operating mode of the radar system.With all the interlock switches closed and the magnetron filament warm-up time expired, relay K5 in thetransmitter will energize applying an enabling ground to the high voltage enable terminal of themodulator power supply.FIGURE 3-3-1   TRANSMITTER BLOCK DIAGRAM

The transmitter trigger is sent tothe dual-channel trigger distribution module, which is an integral part of the transmitter-receiver, locatedin the transmitter cabinet.  From the trigger distribution module the modulator power supply modulereceives the timing trigger and prepares it to drive the solid-state modulator.  The modulator voltagepower supply is regulated to minimize ripple in the transmitter pulse.  It uses all solid-state circuitry toproduce the high voltage pulse that is applied to the pulse and filament transformer.  The stepped-upnegative output voltage pulse of the pulse and filament transformer, about 38 kV, is then applied to themagnetron as the modulating pulse.Using the process just described the transmitter produces high-powered (1 MW) pulses, 2, 1, 0.8, or 0.5microseconds in duration.  The magnetron is driven into oscillation by the high voltage pulse from themodulator, and produces RF energy at a tunable frequency of 5300 to 5700 MHz.  Magnetron output iscoupled to a circulator that permits both transmission and reception through the same waveguide.  Fromthe circulator the energy is transferred through a bidirectional coupler (to permit measurement offorward power and reverse power) to the antenna.3-3-1-2  DUAL-CHANNEL TRIGGER DISTRIBUTION MODULEThe trigger distribution module and PCA are shown schematically in Volume 3.  The purpose of thetrigger distribution module is to furnish the required triggers to the modulator power supply, AFCmodule, test signal generator controller module, sample and hold module and TX/RX BITE module.3-3-1-3  MAGNETRONThe magnetron is a coaxial cavity type vacuum tube that has a permanent magnet integral to the tube.When shocked into oscillation by the 38 kV high voltage pulse, the magnetic field causes the stream ofelectrons from the cathode to spin at the RF frequency rate.  An RF probe picks off the RF energy at theoutput and couples it into the waveguide.  The magnetron power oscillator is capable of producing 1MW at 250 PPS and 2 µs pulsewidth with a duty cycle of 0.0005; at 160 PPS and 1 µs pulsewidth with aduty cycle of 0.00016; at 1180 PPS and 0.8 µs pulsewidth with a duty cycle of 0.00094; and at 320 PPSand 0.5 µs pulsewidth with a duty cycle of 0.00016.  The tube is approximately 50 percent efficient.3-3-1-4  RF COMPONENTSFigure 3-3-2 is a block diagram of the RF components.  RF energy from the magnetron propagatesthrough W7, W1, and W2 before it enters 2-port isolator HY1.  From the isolator, RF energy is fed into asidewall-type bidirectional coupler, DC1.  This coupler is characterized by 40 dB directivity, and is usedfor forward and reverse power measurements, and other measurements including MDS, pulsewidth, andRF frequency.  From the Bidirectional coupler the RF immediately enters a double-stub tuner, Z1, whichpermits adjustment of the waveguide VSWR.  Waveguide section W4 connects the double-stub tuner toHY2, a band-pass filter used to limit out-of-band (spurious) radiation from the system.  From HY2, RFpasses through W3 and W5 to the top of the transmitter and harmonic filter HY3.  HY3 is used to

From the harmonic filter, RF is routed by aseries of waveguide sections to the pedestal and antenna assembly for transmission.3-3-1-5  SOLID STATE MODULATOR SYSTEMThe solid state modulator system is designed to pulse a C-band magnetron operating under thefollowing conditions:                     Pulse voltage :             38 kV        Pulse current :              60 amps peak        Peak Output power:      1 MW        Duty cycle:                   .001        RRV:                            40-60 kV/µs                                  Filament Power:            9.0 VDC @ 18 amps        Pulse Conditions:          2.0 µs @ 250 PPS or                                                                 1.0 µs @ 160 PPS or                                                                 0.8 µs @ 1180 PPS or                                                                 0.5 µs @ 320 PPSThe pulse system consists mainly of three self-contained components:                                  1.  Dual-Channel Modulator Power Supply                                  2.   Solid-State Modulator Assembly                                  3.   Magnetron Filament Transformer3-3-1-5-1  DUAL-CHANNEL MODULATOR POWER SUPPLYInput power requirements for the modulator power supply are 220 VAC single phase at a nominal 15amps.  Internal design of the power supply is dual channel nonredundant.  This means simply that bothchannels are required to support dual mode operation and the two sections of the power supply do notprovide backup for each other.The front panel of the power supply has all of the controls and monitors necessary to ensure properoperation and adjustments of the system. It also provides a starting point in identifying any problemswhich may arise with the modulator section during radar operation. All internal low voltages essentialfor operation of the modulator power supply are monitored on the front panel and their presenceindicated by an illuminated LED.  Power supply output voltage is controlled by a ten-turn potentiometerlocated on the lower right side of the front panel. Above this control is the manual reset button whichallows the power supply to be brought back on line after a predetermined number of fault events haveoccurred within an allotted amount of time and faulted out the power supply. These events wouldgenerally be associated with some abnormality in the magnetron tube operation. To the left of the resetbutton are two groups of fine adjustment controls for the pulsewidths mentioned earlier (2.0, 1.0, 0.8,and 0.5 µs), one group is for channel A of the power supply and the other for channel B.Power supply block diagram, Figure 3-3-3, shows the 220 VAC is switched on to the system via theactivation of +24 VDC.  Input power is first applied to a power factor correction system, whichimproves the power factor of the system to nearly 98%.The power level of the power supply is 3.0 kW and also provides auxiliary power to the modulatorsection.  The block diagram shows the various sections of the power supply.The power factor system accomplishes the following additional functions:a.  Rectifies and regulates the input power to a DC bus level of 360 VDC

It is equipped with a soft-start circuit that regulates the rate of rise of the input  power and charges the main capacitor bank at the nominal input current level.Main topology of the power system is based on a series resonant circuit with an impedance level that isset by the power level of the system.The main inverter section is a half-bridge controlled by a series resonant control circuit.  The SRI controlprovides drive power to the main bridge at a frequency level proportional to the power level required bythe system.  When the system calls for additional power, the main inverter frequency is raisedproportionally to comply with the power demand.  Output voltage of the power supply is set at 1000VDC maximum at 3.0 amps.Low voltage sections of the power supply, as shown in the main block diagram, provide the followingvoltage levels:a.   +15 VDCb.   +18 VDCc.   –12 VDCThere is one additional low voltage power supply of +5 VDC, which provides reset power to the mainpulse transformer system in the main modulator section.The power supply and the main modulator system communicate through the modulator control circuitshown in the main power supply block diagram.  The modulator control circuit provides the followingfunctions:a.  Selects and adjusts the various pulse widths for the system.b.

Two pulsewidth adjustments ports for the main 0.8 µs and 2.0 µs pulsewidths;c.  A reset button, which resets the power supply;d.  A ten-turn potentiometer, which adjusts the output voltage of the power supplyand thus controls the power level of the modulator system.The rear panel of the power supply contains the following items:a.

ISSUE/REVISION DATE: June 8, 2000 TECHNICAL MANUALVOLUME 2, PART 3T3-35718 3-3-73-3-1-5-2  MODULATOR BLOCK DIAGRAMA functional block diagram of the modulator is shown in Figure 3-3-4.The modulator system is housed inside an oiled filled container for cooling and insulating reasons.The modulator employs state-of-the-art solid-state design using IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor)technology.  Recent developments in IGBT technology have made it possible to utilize all solid stateswitches to perform all the high energy switching required by the modulator section.  The four 1000VDC lines provided by the power supply are connected to the modulator main switch deck charging themain capacitor bank of the hard-tube modulator.  This energy is then discharged via an IGBT switch intothe primary winding of a high voltage pulse transformer.  The length of discharge time is controlled bythe modulator control circuitry of the modulator power supply in order to generate the required 0.5 µs,0.8 µs, 1.0 µs, and 2.0 µs pulsewidths of the system.Output of the pulse transformer rises to a pulse amplitude of 38 kV and this is one of the reasons for theoil environment. The second reason is to provide cooling to the modulator system.The top section of the modulator tank contains the following:a.   A high voltage connection marked HV Outputb.   A BNC Connector marked PRF INc. Thirteen terminals whose functions are indicated with the proper markings.  All theseterminals are connected to the power supply section.  The top part of the terminals marked 1,2, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are connected to the auxiliary power connector of the power supply.  E8 andE9 connect to the reset terminals on the back section of the power supply.  E4, E5, E6, andE7 are the four 1000 VDC ports and connect to the terminal strip located in the back sectionof the power supply.  E1 is a ground terminal.3-3-1-5-3  FILAMENT TRANSFORMERThe filament transformer provides filament power to the magnetron with 50 kVDC isolation betweensecondary and primary windings.  The power rating of the filament transformer is 9.0 volts DC at 18amps DC.  The filament transformer is oil filled with bushings for the input and output connections. Thehigh voltage bushing of the filament transformer contains two studs marked Cathode and Heater.  Inputvoltage to the filament transformer is 220 VAC 50/60 Hz.The terminal marked cathode should be connected to the output HV terminal of the modulator and theone marked heater to the magnetron heater lead.  The filament transformer is located adjacent to themodulator in the lower compartment of the system next to the power supply.

The hot voltage is routed through2F1 (the main power fuse).  From 2F1 the voltage is applied to MAIN POWER contactor 2K1-3.Contactor 2K1 is controlled by 2S1, the transmitter/receiver power switch, and from an external source(24 VAC) through 2J2 pins A and B.Figure 3-3-5 is a simplified diagram of the transmitter control circuits.  The following conditions mustbe met prior to placing the transmitter into the RADIATE mode.♦Servo/RCP power must be ON.♦Control assembly power must be ON.♦Transmitter-receiver power must be ON.♦ Cabinet door and hotbox door interlocks must be closed.♦Ten minute time delay must be expired.♦Safety switches at the pedestal and servo cabinet must be in the OPERATE position.♦Waveguide pressure normal (35 psi)♦Modulator blowers must be operating♦Magnetron blower must be operating.If the above conditions are met, K3 will be energized, lighting the Standby lamps.  The RADIATE ONswitch, when depressed, will energize contactor driver relay K5, which in turn will enable the modulatorpower supply output to the modulator.  This in turn generates the high voltage pulse (normally anegative 38 kV pulse) to the magnetron, generating the RF pulse to the antenna.

The other leg of the input AC is routed to the return side of magnetron filamentinterlock relay 2K2.  This unit protects the magnetron from damage by opening the interlock line whenthere is a loss of filament voltage.  Inside the assembly, low voltage output from the transformer isrectified to produce a DC filament voltage which exits at solder lugs C and H (cathode and heater).3-3-2-3  RUN-TIME METERSMeter 2M1 is the Operate Time meter and 2M2 is the Radiate Time meter.

The secondary modulator trigger enters thetransmitter cabinet at J4 and is also routed to the trigger distribution module at its input A3J3.  Outputprimary and secondary mod triggers leave the trigger distribution module at J4 and J5 and are applied atTTL levels to modulator power supply PS4 at J1 and J5 respectively.  After conditioning in themodulator power supply, the modulator triggers leave PS4J2 (A) and J6 (B) and enter the solid-statemodulator at A1JA and A1JB as the modulator pulse.3-3-2-5  DUAL-CHANNEL TRIGGER DISTRIBUTION MODULE AND PCA (2A3/2A3A1)Both the dual-channel trigger distribution module and PCA are shown schematically in Volume 3.  Thepurpose of the trigger distribution module is to furnish the required modulator triggers to the modulatorpower supply, and auxiliary (test) primary and secondary modulator triggers to other parts of the systemlike the BITE subsystem.Primary modulator trigger enters the PCA at E1 and the secondary modulator trigger enters at E2.  Eachsignal is fed directly to the input of a Schmidt trigger inverter, U1.  Out of the inverter each triggerdrives three 75 Ω line driver circuits at U2 and U3.  Three conditioned primary triggers are output fromthe PCA at E5, E9, and E10 leaving the module at jacks J4, J6, and J7.  Secondary triggers leave thePCA at E7, E8, and E11; and the module at jacks J5, J8, and J9.Input DC power at +15 volts is regulated down to +5 VDC by a circuit card mounted IC regulator andfilter network.  Operation of all the trigger distribution module PCA circuitry is from this five voltsource.3-3-3  TRANSMITTER FAULT MONITORING SUBSYSTEM GENERAL DESCRIPTION(2A4)The fault monitoring equipment is a subsystem contained in a single module which, when supported bythe system software, allows important system parameters to be monitored on a continuous basis.
