Distance Learning Operations Course, Topic 3 Lesson 1 -- Figure 7: Target outside Rmax

Figure 7. Animation of radar pulse sampling target beyond Rmax

Figure 7. Example of a single target lying beyond R_max. The pulse interacts with the leading edge of a target at a range of 300 nm. The first pulse continues to travel away from radar while a small amount of backscattered energy from it has reached a range of 100 nm just as the next pulse is transmitted.
