Radar uses a form of electromagnetic radiation, which
like light, can be reflected Because of this property,
some objects may cause false echoes on the screen
where in tact no targets actually exist.
I Side-lobe echoes
Radiation can escape on each side otthe beam inside
the lobes. Ifa target reflects this radiation, it will be dis-
played on the screen as an echo,
Maln beam
Side lobes
I Indirect echoes
Indirect echoes may be returned from elther a passing
ship, or retumed from a reflecting surface, such as a
mast on your own shlp.

MRvS’IOR/ Page 12-27
These echoes may appear if a large vessel. bridge, or
tank is in proximity. Operators should be lamiliar with
the effects of these phenomena, In some cases,
echoes can be reduced,
BASIC RADAR THEORY
Side-lobe echoes usually occur at short ranges and as
a result of large (strongly reflective) targets. They can
be reduced with proper adjustment of the [SEA] con‘
trol. See [9.10 tor the [SEA] control.
False
echoes
An indirect echo tram a reflecting surlace will appear
on a different bearing lrom the direct (true) echo, but
the distance will be approximately the same tor both.

l Multiple echoes
Multiple echoes may appear when a short»range and
strong echo is received tram a ship, bridge. or break-
water.
Own ship Another Ship
I Minimum range
Detection at short range is very important. Minimum
range is determined primarily by transmitter pulse
length, vertical beam width and height of the scanner
unit. The shorter the transmission time the quicker the
return echoes can be received and their distance mea-
sured.
Multiple echoes will appear beyond the target's true
echo point on the same bearing of a large target. They
can be reduced with proper adjustment of the [SEA]
control, See p 10 tor the [SEA] control.
False echoes
True echo
The ability to see targets very close to the ship is de»
creased if the antenna is mounted too high off the
water‘ because the bottom of the vertical beam of the
scanner cuts off nearby targets

l Blind and Shadow sectors
Blind or Shadow sectors may exist because of ob~
structions such as masts, derricks or slacks An ob-
struction may throw either a complete or partial
shadow as shown in the diagram below, lfa target is in
a shadow sector, target echoes may not appear on the
screen.

l Target resolution
Target resolution is determined by the horizontal beam
width and transmit pulse width, Sometimes it ts difficult
to detect two targets which are separated by short dIS-
tances or which are in the same direction.
- Distance resolution
When two targets are separated by more than the
pulse width. they appear as two echoes.
When two targets are not separated by more than
the pulse width. they appear as 1 echo.

BASIC RADAR THEORY B
When tall and massive targets such as a large island
are located at close range also shadowed without pro-
ductng any echoes.This phenomenon is called blind
sector. It is very important to know the bearings and
wtdths at all shadow sectors caused by your own
ship's obstructions.

- Direction resolution
When two targets are separated by more than the
horizontal beam width, they appear as two echoes.
When two targets are not separated by more than
