Usage examples
  • A Radar Target Enhancer (RTE) is designed to respond to an interrogating radar with an amplified signal, which is transmitted on the same frequency with minimal time delay. The effect of this is to provide the structure on which it is mounted with a consistent radar return where otherwise, without enhancement, it would have become intermittent, difficult or impossible to detect.
