3.5 Suppressing Radar

Interference

Radar interference may occur when near an-
other shipborne radar operating in the same
frequency band as your radar. Its on-screen
appearance is many bright dots either scat-
tered at random or in the form of dotted lines
extending from the center to the edge of the
display. Figure 3-5 illustrates interference in
the from of curved spokes. Interference ef-
fects are distinguishable form normal echoes
because they do not appear in the same place
on successive rotations of the antenna.
