无线电高度表RadioAltimeter(RA)

CivilAviationFlightUniversityofChinaTheradioaltimetersystemprovidesaccurateterrainclearancealtitudeinformationdisplayedintheflightcompartment,forusebytheflightcrew.TheradioaltimetersystemconsistsofradioaltimeterReceiver/Transmitter(R/T)unit,radioaltimeterantenna,anddisplay.Aradioaltimeteriscalled‘radio’ratherthan‘radar’becauseitstransmissionsarenotpulsedasradartransmissionsare.Thetransmissionisacontinuouswavewithconstantamplitudeandafrequency-modulatedcarrierof4300MHz(C-band).Therateoffrequencymodulationis100timespersecond.Theradioaltitudeiscomputedbydeterminingthedifferencebetweenthefrequencyofthereflectedsignalandthefrequencyofthesignalbeingtransmittedattheinstantthereflectedsignalisreceived.RadioAltimeter(RA)
