Rangecell
In radar devices with digital signal processing, the range of values is divided for the distance measured in small portions Range Cells can be mentioned. A rangecell is the smallest unit in terms of distance.
In the case of radar devices without pulse compression , the size of the range cell is usually determined by the duration of the transmission pulse . If the transmission pulse duration is, for example, 1 microsecond, then the range cell is 150 m according to the general formula for determining the distance . If the theoretical maximum range of the radar device is 300 km, then a range excursion on the radar screen has a total of 2000 range cells and the memory for this data requires 2000 bytes .
