ANGLE OF REFLECTIONThe angle between the reflected wave and the normal [10]. | ||
ANGLE OF REFRACTIONThe angle between the normal and the path of a wave through the second medium [10]. | ||
ANGSTROM UNITThe unit used to define the wavelength of light waves [10]. | ||
ANISOTROPICThe property of a radiator that allows it to emit strong radiation in one direction [10]. | ||
ANTENNAA conductor or set of conductors used to radiate RF energy into space or to collect RF energy from space or to do both [10]. | ||
ANTENNA BEAM WIDTHWidth of a radar beam measured between half-power points [18]. | ||
ANTENNA COUPLERA device used for impedance matching between an antenna and a transmitter or receiver [17]. | ||
ANTENNA SYSTEMRoutes RF energy from the transmitter, radiates the energy into space, receives echoes, and routes the echoes to the receiver [18]. | ||
ANTIJAMMING CIRCUITAn electronic circuit used to minimize the effects of enemy countermeasures, thereby permitting radar echoes to be visible on the indicator [18]. | ||
