| An B-Scope shows a
picture like a Cartesian diagram. The abscissa is the
measurement of the bearing (azimuth), and the ordinate is the
measurement of the range. This form of the monitors is
preferred with fire-control radars.
The center of the
bearing usually is movable through hand wheels. The antenna
turntable then is turned into the new direction. The screens
middle is defined as the main reception direction of the
antenna normally. The bearing area is covered through an
electro-mechanical one or electronic beam steering. |
