Title:
CLOSED LOOP POWER MANAGEMENT FOR RADAR BASED SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002095440
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A closed loop radar power management system includes a radar sensor that transmits a terrain tracking signal and that receives a reflection of the terrain tracking signal. The radar sensor produces a terrain feature signal in response to the reflected terrain tracking signal. A terrain comparator of the closed loop radar power management system compares the terrain feature signal with reference terrain features so as to produce a position indicating signal and a track quality signal. The radar sensor controls power of the transmitted terrain tracking signal in response to the track quality signal.
