CHAPTER 1

GENERAL INFORMATION

1-1. INTRODUCTION. This chapter contains a description of the


equipment covered by this manual. This chapter also includes various
types of reference data for the deployment and support of the
equipment.

1-2. EQUIPMENT PURPOSE. The equipment covered by this manual is a


radar antenna group. The purpose of the radar antenna assembly is to
radiate S-band radio frequency (RF) pulses into space in a prescribed
pattern and to collect pulses reflected from aircraft. The radiate
pulses are supplied to the radar antenna assembly from the radar
transmitter located in an equipment shelter. Reflected pulses are
down-converted from S-band to 32 MHz before passing to the radar
intermediate frequency (IF) receiver. The purpose of the IFF antenna
is to radiate IFF interrogation pulses, at a frequency of 1030 MHz,
and to collect aircraft transponder pulses, transmitted at a
frequency of 1090 MHz. The interrogation pulses are supplied to the
IFF antenna from the IFF transceiver; the reply pulses are passed
from the same unit. The purpose of the omnidirectional antenna is to
continuously monitor the environment to detect jamming.

1-3. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION. Figure 1-1 shows the antenna group as


it appears when ready for operation.

a. The antenna group (see FO-l) consists of radar antennas mounted


on the rotating portion of a stationary pedestal. The radar antenna
assembly is mounted on a tower. The IFF antenna is mounted at the
top of the radar antenna assembly. An omnidirectional antenna is
mounted on top of the IFF antenna.

b. The electrical interface between the radar equipment shelter


and the radar antenna assembly is established by connecting lengths
of waveguide between the shelter transmitter output port and an input
port on the antenna pedestal, and by connecting power and signal
cables between shelter connectors and pedestal connectors.

c. When ac power is applied to the antenna pedestal drive motor,


the radar antenna assembly rotates at a speed of approximately 6 rpm.
Electrical continuity between the stationary and rotating portions of
the antenna pedestal is obtained through a rotary joint assembly that
extends up through the center of the pedestal.

d. The radar antenna assembly is a new and unconventional design


that provides a 0- to 20-degree elevation pattern of high gain and
narrow beam width with very low sidelobes in the azimuth plane. The
transmit/receive side of the radar antenna assembly is a flat,
rectangular surface formed by an array of 36 pieces of slotted
waveguide that are environmentally protected by an electrically
transparent cover. The microwave components, needed to distribute
transmit signals to the various pieces of waveguide, are located on
the back of the antenna assembly. The beam of transmitted energy is

1-1
formed by dividing the single high-level input from the radar set
transmitter into 22 low-level signals that have differing phases and
amplitudes. Each of these 22 signals is applied to one of 22 pieces
of slotted waveguide. The emissions from the slot openings in each
of the 22 pieces of waveguide result in a composite transmit beam,
narrow in the azimuth plane and fan-shaped in cross-section.

e. Reflected energy from aircraft is collected by all 36 pieces of


slotted waveguide in the radar antenna assembly. The 36 waveguide
outputs are partially combined and amplified in low noise RF
amplifiers. Their outputs are combined again. The result is that the
antenna reception pattern contains six distinct peaks, each at a
prescribed elevation angle. Peaks in the receive pattern, at known
elevation angles, enable the radar set to compute the height of an
aircraft after its range has been measured.

f. The six outputs that result from the successive combinations


are applied to a receiver on the back of the antenna assembly. In
the receiver, each of the six inputs are amplified and then mixed
with a local oscillator signal provided from the frequency generator.
As a result of mixing, the signals in each of the six channels are
downconverted from the S-band transmit frequency to an intermediate
frequency of 32-MHz which is compatible with the input requirements
of the IF receiver.

g. The azimuth of the radar antenna transmit and receive beam


patterns are not perpendicular to the face of the antenna assembly.
The pattern directions are at an angle that varies with frequency and
has a maximum value of 16 degrees. The angle of departure from the
perpendicular is referred to as the squint angle. Because of the
squint angle, the IFF antenna is mounted so that its face is at an
angle with respect to the face of the radar antenna assembly. With
this mounting arrangement, both antennas are electrically pointed in
the same directi0n.

h. The IFF antenna is a linear array of dipoles with a reflector


behind them. A front cover protects the dipoles from the weather.
The dipoles are partitioned into two sections that can be excited
independently. This feature permits the IFF to operate in the
interrogator sidelobe suppression (ISLS) mode. The IFF antenna
system also includes a duplexer and an electronic switch. These
elements and a small backfill radiator mounted at the rear of the IFF
antenna permit a sum pattern to be formed when PI or P3 interrogation
pulses are radiated. A difference pattern is formed when P2
interrogation pulses are radiated. The difference pattern is
produced within +2.0 degrees of the sum pattern peak.

i. The round omnidirectional antenna has a doughnut-shaped


reception pattern for S-band frequencies. The reception gain of this
antenna exceeds the gain of the sidelobes produced by the radar
antenna. Signals received by the omnidirectional antenna are
amplified by a low noise RF amplifier located in the receiver
assembly at the back of the radar antenna assembly; the amplified
signals are then amplified again in a second amplifier and mixed with

1-2
a local oscillator signal from the frequency generator. The 32-MHz
output of this channel is the seventh input for the IF receiver and
it detects jamming signals.

1-4. REFERENCE DATA. Reference data for the antenna assembly is


discussed in the following paragraphs.

a. Leading Particulars. The leading particulars of the antenna


assembly cannot be considered apart from those of the parent radar
set. For radar set leading particulars, refer to the radar set
manual.

b. Capabilities and Limitations. The important capabilities and


limitations of the antenna assembly are listed in table 1-1.

c. Equipment Supplied. Table 1-2 lists the major assemblies and


components of the antenna group. The table includes the official
nomenclature, the common name and reference designation, the
quantity, and a brief description for each item. The common names
listed in table 1-2 will be used throughout the remaining chapters of
this manual. The location of the items listed in table 1-2 are shown
in FO-l.

d. Recommended Support Equipment and Consumable Materials. Table


1-3 lists the support equipment which is recommended for installa-
tion, operation, and maintenance of the antenna group. Table 1-4
lists the materials which are routinely consumed during operation and
maintenance of the antenna group. The table references a
Westinghouse specification, Government specification, and commercial
part number wherever possible. Although each reference recommends a
product that will adequately serve the purpose intended for the
antenna group, the products will not necessarily be identical or
interchangeable.

e. Related Publications. This manual is a second level manual


that supports a higher level radar set manual. Table 1-5 lists the

CHAPTER 5

THEORY OF OPERATION

5-1. INTRODUCTION. This chapter contains a functional description


of the antenna group. The purpose of the description is to provide
operating and maintenance personnel with sufficient background
information to effectively perform their duties. The level of
description is based on the assumption that the personnel have had
previous experience with similar or related equipment. This chapter
is divided into three sections: section I, functional system
operation; section II, functional operation of electronic circuits;
and section III, functional operation of mechanical assemblies.

Section I. FUNCTIONAL SYSTEM OPERATION

5-2. GENERAL. This section contains an overall description of the


equipment and detailed descriptions of each of the major equipment
functions.

5-3. OVERALL DESCRIPTION. The overall description of the equipment


is divided into two major topics: mechanical features and
electrical/electronic features.

a. Mechanical Features. The significant mechanical features of


the antenna group are shown in FO-l. Refer to that diagram during
the following discussion.

(1) Antenna Pedestal AIAll. The antenna pedestal supports the


tusk assembly which is the backbone of the antenna array. The
pedestal assembly consists of a stationary pedestal, a rotating
pedestal, and an adjustable tilt frame.

(a) Stationary Pedestal. The stationary pedestal is two sub-


assemblies bolted together: a top section called the stationary
inner cylinder, and a bottom section which is the base. The
stationary inner cylinder mounts two main bearings which support the
rotating pedestal. On top of the stationary cylinder, a bearing
plate with shims preloads to remove excessive play in the rotating
pedestal. Mounting pads in the stationary cylinder provide anchor
points for rotary joint Al and vertical sensor A3. The lower portion
of the stationary pedestal is anchored to the tower. Side cover on
the antenna pedestal allows access to waveguide and electrical
connections for rotary joint Al and vertical sensor A3 on one side,
and to synchro and encoder geartrain assembly AIA4 and junction box
AIA4A2 on the other side. The stationary pedestal also supports
antenna drive assembly A2 and the bottom of the bullgear shield.

(b) Rotating Pedestal. The rotating pedestal is supported by


two main bearings. For each bearing, a lube fitting and purge hole
is provided so that the bearings can be lubricated at lO-degree
intervals of rotation as indicated by the azimuth scale on the
bullgear shield. A top cover with a seal on the rotating pedestal is

5-1
accessible through the top access in the tilt frame. This rotating
pedestal cover allows access to the bearing plate and shims on the
stationary inner cylinder and to the anchor bolts for the rotary
joint and vertical sensor. The access cover is sealed with a neo-
prene O-ring to keep out water and debris.

(c) Tilt Frame. The tilt frame, which pivots on the rotating
pedestal, can be preset to a prescribed angle from -1.5 to +3
degrees, in 1/4-degree increments. This angle, controlled by a stack
of wedge-shaped shims on each side of the pedestal, is the tilt angle
of the array. Each stack of shims is retained by and pivots on a
shoulder bolt. On the pedestal, a keeper secures the shims that are
not in use. Once the holddown nuts are loosened, the required shims
are inserted or removed when the tilt frame is lifted on one end by a
tilt frame jack. On the tilt frame, the slotted lug for the tilt
frame jack is to the right of pedestal step as viewed from the center
of pedestal.

(2) Tusk Assembly. The tusk assembly supports the array assembly,
the IFF antenna, and the omnidirectional antenna. When lowered, the
tusk assembly is pivioted 20 degrees below the horizontal position.
The tusk assembly consists of a pedstal extension, left and right
tusks, and a screwjack assembly.

(a) Pedestal Extension. Attached to the pedestal tilt frame,


the pedestal extension supports the left and right tusks and the
screwjack assembly. The tusks also pivot on the pedestal extension.
Grease fittings are provided for the pivot bearings.

(b) Left and Right Tusks. The tusks pivot on the pedestal
extension when folding the antenna. When erected, each tusk is
bolted to a stop block on each pedestal extension. The tusks are
supported by struts attached to the tilt frame. Through the use of
quick-release pins, the struts are easily installed and removed.

(c) Screwjack Assembly. The screwjack assembly contains the


pivot angle of the left and right tusks, thereby raising or lowering
the array assembly. The jack is operated by a crank handle or by an
electric drill. The handcrank and the 24-Vdc electric drill are
provided with the antenna. A torque limiting device prevents the
application of excessive torque to the crank. Eight grease fittings
are provided on the jack assembly: two on the traverse shaft, two on
the jack support bracket, two on the traveling nut, and two at the
base of jack (one fitting under the wormgear boot). The wormgear is
periodically lubricated by brush.

b. Electrical/Electronic Features. An overall block diagram of


the antenna group is shown in FO-2. Refer to that diagram during the
following discussion.

(1) The radar antenna and the IFF and omnidirectional antennas
(FO-2, sheet 1) show the physical relationship between the fixed and
movable portions of the antenna pedestal. Observe that the IFF
antenna is mounted above the radar antenna and that the

5-2
omnidirectional antenna is mounted above the IFF antenna. Also, note
that the signals to and from the three antennas are transferred
through sliprings of the rotary joint. The energy from the radar
antenna and from the omnidirectional antenna is IF energy, whereas he
input and output energy of the IFF antenna is in RF form.
Additionally, the test pulse is in RF form.

(2) The antenna pedestal drive motor causes the antenna to


rotate at a speed of approximately 6 rpm and at the same time drives
the resolver, the two synchros, and the encoder within the rotary
joint. A tilt sensor, which is excited by a single-phase, 120-Vac,
400-Hz signal, is physically mounted on the antenna pedestal. Its
function is to sense when the antenna pedestal is not level as a
result of antenna rotation. This deviation from the level would
cause pointing errors, which would result in height determination
errors. The tilt sensor produces two outputs, one in the pitch axis
and one in the roll axis.

(a) Resolver. The resolver has two stators and a four-


element rotor. Basically, any resolver is used to determine a vector
quantity, which has been represented electrically as sine and cosine
components. The resolver is used to produce voltage outputs rather
than rotation. The inputs to the resolver stators are the roll com-
ponent and the pitch component from the tilt sensor and are applied
through the amplifier portion of the amplifier-demodulator. The
resolver outputs, which are taken from the rotor, are applied to the
demodulator portion of the amplifier-demodulator.

(b) Amplifier-demodulator. The amplifier-demodulator


contains two operational amplifiers, one for the pitch input and one
for the roll input. It also contains a demodulator circuit, which is
excited by a single-phase, 56-Vac, 400-Hz signal, whose output is the
tilt correction voltage needed to compensate for any deviation from
the level of the antenna as it rotates.

_j (c) synchros. The two synchros are not used in this radar
( installation. The synchros, which are excited by a single-phase,
120-Vac, 400-Hz signal, produce antenna position information, both
coarse and fine. The coarse data is IX data, the fine data is 36X
data. In a coarse data system, the synchro must turn one complete
revolution to transmit a full range of values. One revolution of the
input shaft produces one revolution of the synchro transmitter rotor,
which in turn, produces one revolution of the synchro receiver rotor.
This single-speed system is self-synchronous; however, it has the
disadvantage of being inaccurate. In a fine data system, one
rotation of the input shaft produces 36 rotations of the rotor in the
synchro and one rotation of the output shaft. This reduces the
system error by a factor of 36; however, the system has 36
correspondence points and as such, cannot be self-synchronous.

(~ Encoder. The encoder produces two outputs for each


antenna revolution: one output consists of 4096 azimuth change
pulses (ACP) and the other output is a single pulse (north mark).

(3) The remaining electrical portion of the antenna group is
shown on FO-2 sheet 2.

(a) IFF Antenna. The IFF/SIF radar antenna includes an AS-


3719/TPS-70(V) main antenna, an AS-4008/T backfill radiator, and a
hybrid duplexer assembly. The antenna group transmits and receives
the IFF signals. The electronic switch, although not a part of the
IFF antenna group, is described under this heading.

1 IFF Antenna AS-3719/TPS-70(V). This IFF antenna is


mounted in-front of the antenna feed. The IFF antenna is a separate
planar array of vertically polarized dipoles in front of a reflector.
The dipoles are on the inside of the front fiberglass surface and the
reflector is formed around the other surfaces. The combination is
filled with a closed-cell foam and covered with fiberglass to form a
light rigid package that is impervious to the weather. The overall
antenna is divided into separate identical electrical halves. Each
half of the dipole array is fed by a balanced RF line within the
confines of the package. The resulting assembly is completely rigid
and enclosed except for one RF connector on each half.

2 Backfill Radiator AS-4008/T. The backfill radiator is a


single dipole mounted on the support for the reflector at the back of
the IFF directional antenna, which utilizes construction techniques
similar to the IFF antenna. The backfill radiator covers the
backlobe of the sum pattern.

1 Hybrid Duplexer Assembly. The hybrid duplexer applies


signals to the two antenna halves of the IFF antenna. The duplexer
has two outputs, Pl and P2, which are either in-phase or 180 degrees
out-of-phase. The duplexer has two input ports, Jl and J2. The two
duplexer outputs provide the means of generating the sum pattern with
the two halves in-phase and the difference pattern with the two
antenna halves 180 degrees out-of-phase.

i Electronic Switch. The electronic switch separates the


RF signals from the pulsed video switching signals coupled into the
switch. The electronic switch consists of an RF switch, RF filter,
and a diplexer, all integrated into a common stripline package. In
operation, the diplexer receives the incoming signals and separates
the RF signals from the pulsed video switching signals. When the
incoming signal is a sum, or positive pulse, it causes the RF energy
to be propagated to the sum port of the electronic switch. When the
incoming signal is a difference or negative pulse, it causes the
RFenergy to be propagated to the difference port. An RF low-pass
filter with an operating frequency above 1200 MHz is located at each
port to filter and couple the signal of the present mode to the
hybrid duplexer of the radarantenna assembly. This duplexer can
alternately light each of the two linear arrays of the antenna in
either an in-phase or out-of-phase relationship, depending upon the
selected mode of operation. See figure 5-1 for radiation patterns.
The mode-of-operation is selected by the incoming signal to the dup-
lexer from the electronic switch. On initiation of the sum mode,
each of the two linear arrays are lit in-phase, thus forming a

beam-pattern having low sidelobes. Initiation of the difference mode


casues the two linear arrays to be lit out-of-phase. In this mode,
the input signal to the duplexer is also coupled to the backfill
radiator. The difference beam-pattern thus covers most of the sum
pattern except in the backlobe null area, which is covered by the
backfill radiator pattern.

(b) Omnidirectional Antenna. The omnidirectional antenna,


also referred to as the sidelobe reference (SLR) antenna, is a
cylindrical structure mounted on top of the IFF antenna, which in
turn is mounted on top of the array assembly. The SLR antenna is a
solid-state stripline device designed to have an omnidirectional
receive pattern; that is, a gain of 0 dB in all directions.

1 The SLR receiver channel can provide a reference to


which energy from the main antenna can be compared. The similarity
of signal strength initiates a rejection process (sidelobe blanking)
prior to the plan position indicator (PPI) display. Sidelobe
blanking (SLB) circuits will be discussed further as part of the
theory of operation of receivers in the unit signal processor. The
relative receive pattern between the main antenna and the SLR antenna
is not critical; therefore, no adjustments are necessary to the
antenna group.

5-5
2 The SLR antenna has a broader bandwidth than the main
antenna. A filter mounted inside the SLR antenna assembly limits the
bandwidth of side lobe RF being sent to the beam forming network
enclosure assembly. The output signal of the SLR antenna is applied
to a low-noise amplifier (LNA) which establishes the noise figure.
The LNA output is applied to a circuit composed of an RF amplifier, a
mixer, and an IF amplifier. The mixer accepts an input from the
stable local oscillator (STALO) along with the amplified RF input to
produce a 32-MHz IF signal which is subsequently amplified by the IF
amplifier.

5-4. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS. In the following paragraphs, each of


the major electrical/electronic subsystems of the antenna group is
discussed. Each description is referenced to a functional signal
flow diagram that shows the various features of interest in suffi-
cient detail to support organizational level operation and mainte-
nance activities. On the functional diagrams, electronic assemblies
although discussed in greater detail in section II of this chapter,
are generally shown only as simple blocks.

a. Rotation and Direction Monitoring. The antenna drive and


direction monitoring circuits are shown in simplified form in FO-3.
Refer to that diagram during the following discussion. The antenna
drive and direction monitoring components are comprised of the
antenna drive assembly A2, encoder AI, and synchros Bl and B2.

b. Level Monitoring. The level monitoring circuits are shown in


FO-3. Refer to that diagram during the following discussion.

(1) Introduction. The components associated with level monitor-


ing are vertical sensor A3, amplifier-demodulator AI, and sensor
resolver A3. Antenna tilt indicator lAlA5 is shown on the diagram
and described here; however, it is not a part of the antenna. These
components relate to the literal, physical movement of the antenna on
a horizontal axis (like a seesaw). Such movement alters the normal
elevation angle (causes the established vertical axis to tilt), and
must be compensated to prevent the height system from computing inac-
curate target altitudes. One type of tilt is intentional and
involves the leveling of the antenna at the time of installation. It
is sometimes called mechanical tilt, although all tilt is mechanical
in nature. Another type of tilt is any incidental deviation result-
ing from random disturbances such as wind, freezing earth (upheaval),
and ground faults.

(2) Intentional Mechanical Tilt. Wedge-shaped tilt plates allow


the level of the antenna to be mechanically changed (in 0.25-degree
increments) as much as 1.5 degrees negative or 3.0 degrees positive
from the horizontal. Such change will usually be made at the time of
site installation and will depend on the topography and purpose of a
particular site. At a mountaintop site with very little ground
clutter, the antenna could be tilted downward to improve low-level
surveillance. At a site surrounded by higher mountains, the antenna
can be tilted upward to reduce ground clutter. Regardless, mechani-
cal tilt is first set to zero. After the installation site is

5-6
prepared, the antenna is erected, accurately leveled to true horizon-
tal, and intentionally tilted using the mechanical adjustments
provided. This fixed tilt value is electronically supplied to the
height computer as a fixed reference.

(3) Dynamic Tilt Sensing. Incidental tilt is continuously


changing. The vertical sensor senses positive or negative pitch and
roll. pitch and roll in this case refers to the nonrotating pedes-
tal. If, for example, the pedestal had a constant pitch and/or roll
+1 degree due east, the elevation coverage pattern would be up 1
degree only when the rotating structure was also pointing due east.
When the antenna is rotating half way around (assuming the pedestal
does not change tilt), the elevation pattern would be pointing down
by 1 degree. As the antenna is rotating through north or south, the
elevation error would be 0 degrees. The sensor resolver and the
amplifier-demodulator translate those various interacting forces into
a single-error value for use by the height system.

(a) Vertical sensor A3, which is physically and rigidly


attached to the antenna pedestal, acts as an electrical generator,
whose output is a product of any deflection (tilt) of the antenna
from the normal vertical axis (horizontal plane) of rotation. The
sensor is mounted inside the fixed pedestal assembly, and is factory
calibrated (leveled). The sensor element is comprised of a single
primary coil and a multiple-tapped secondary. The upper secondary
winding is sensitive to pitch deviations and the lower secondary
winding is sensitive to roll deviations.

(b) The vertical sensor is excited by a 3-Vac rms signal from


transformer Tl in junction box A2, whose excitation is a single-
phase, 120-Vac, 400-Hz signal. As the antenna rotates, any deviation
from the level is noted by a voltage induced in the pitch axis or
roll axis or both. The amplitude of the signals is in direct propor-
tion to degree of tilt. These signals are taken from the vertical
sensor via Jl, pins E and B on cabling through the rotary joint box
to amplifiers Ul and U2 in the amplifier-demodulator. These high-
gain, stable amplifier outputs are applied to sensor resolver A3.

(c) The resolver has two stators and a four-element rotor.


The resolver inputs are applied to the stators, and the resolver
output is taken from the rotor. As such, it produces a voltage out-
put that is a vector quantity of the two inputs. This output, a
modulated tilt signal, is applied to the demodulator portion of the
amplifier-demodulator. The excitation for this circuit is a single-
phase, 56-Vac, 400-Hz signal applied to Jl, pins 1 and 14. This
excitation is derived from transformer Tl in the antenna tilt
indicator unit, which is excited by phase A of a three-phase input,
the same as the origin of excitation for the vertical sensor. The
demodulator removes the ac component from the signal and outputs the
demodulated tilt signal at Jl, pin 4, the demodulated tilt signal is
needed to compensate for any deviation from the level of the antenna
as it rotates. Note the number of test points within the amplifier
demodulator which are quite useful when testing or troubleshooting.

5-7
A detailed description of the amplifier-demodulator, including
waveforms, is included in section II of this chapter.

(4) Antenna Tilt Indicator lAlA5. The antenna tilt indicator,


though operational, is not applicable for this installation. The
demodulated tilt signal is sent from the amplifier-demodulator to the
antenna tilt indicator (lAIA5) on the power distribution panel where
it is divided onto a pair of error voltage outputs. One error
voltage output, a 600-mV per-degree tilt signal, is taken from R7 and
sent to the receiver for use in height computation. The other error
voltage output is sent through R6 to ANTENNA TILT INDICATOR (Ml),
which displays antenna tilt in angular degrees. Ml is a meter-relay.
When the antenna tilt exceeds the established limits of ±0.6 degree,
the meter pointer acts as a switch contact, providing a path to
energize K2. Relay K2 energizes and applies voltage to alarm
indicators DSI and DS2, and to the alarm timer, which consists of Ql,
CRl, a charging capacitor, and assorted resistors. The TILT ALARM
LAMP (DSl) lights, and the audible alarm (DS2) sounds if Sl is
closed. The alarm timing circuit causes DSI and DS2 to cycle off and
on. The alarm circuits can be set to operate at a value other than
0.6 degree of antenna tilt by adjusting the actuating contacts on MI.
The setting of each actuator (red indicator) is a screwdriver
adjustment on the face of MI.

(a) Alarm Timing Circuit. When K2 energizes due to excessive


tilt, voltage is sent to the alarm timing circuit. Current then
flows through the charging capacitor. When the voltage across it
reaches the firing potential of uni-junction Ql, the uni-junction
conducts heavily, creating a voltage drop across its load. The
voltage drop turns on CRl, allowing Kl to energize. In the meantime,
Cl is discharging through Ql. Relay Kl energizes and opens the
contacts in series with K2 and turns off the alarms. Relay K2 does
not deenergize instantly as capacitors (not shown) act as short-term
batteries, keeping K2 energized for a few hundred milliseconds. When
K2 deenergizes, it breaks the voltage path to the alarm timing
circuit, including relay Kl. With K2 deenergized, the voltage can
again reach K2. The alarms will turn on, and the timing cycle will
begin again. The result will be that the alarm lamp flashes off and
on (during the period of excess antenna tilt) and the solid state
transducer (DS2) emits a beeping sound.

(b) Alignment Information. The alignment procedure for the


level monitoring circuits is found in chapter 7. The controls Rl,
R6, and R7, are described there. However, the following information
should be helpful. On antenna tilt indicator lAlA5, Rl is tied
between + and -15 volts dc. Its variable arm is used to zero (with
power on) the ANTENNA TILT INDICATOR (Ml), when the antenna is
perfectly level. That balance adjustment (Rl) is made, however,
after the meter has been zeroed (with power off) using the mechanical
zero adjustment screw on the face of the meter. After balancing, the
amount of meter deflection is calibrated by R6. Likewise, the
amplitude of the tilt signal to the receiver is calibrated by R7,
which is adjusted so as to produce 600 mVdc (at TP7) for 1 degree (+
or -) of antenna tilt.

5-8
c. Radar Transmission. The radar transmission circuits are shown
in simplified form in functional diagram FO-4. Refer to that diagram
during the following discussion.

(1) Introduction. The transmit RF signal processing circuit


consists of the components shown in FO-IS.

(2) Antenna General Information. The antenna is a planar-phased


array composed of 36 edge-slotted waveguide elements, also referred
to as sticks. Each element has 98 slots and is 18 feet long. The
complete 36-element array is 11 feet wide; however, only 22 elements
are used for transmitting.

(a) Microwave energy is transmitted and received via the slots


in the elements, which are approximately 1/2 wavelength apart both
horizontally, slot-to-slot on an individual stick, and vertically,
slot-to-slot on adjacent sticks, and with adjacent slots cut in
opposing directions. This configuration causes the transmit beam
patterns to be a function of the phase relation between signals at
adjacent slots, and this characteristic causes the antenna to be
directional. Since the antenna's directivity depends upon the phase
relation of energy at adjacent slots, the particular direction of the
radiated beam is also a function of frequency. The antenna is
electronically scanned by varying the frequency of the transmitted
signal and is also mechanically scanned in azimuth as the antenna
rotates.

(b) Multiple beams are used for determining elevation, the


same as for a reflector antenna. The advantage of this antenna over
a reflector antenna (used in otner radar sets)is that a phased array
has substantially lower sidelobes and provides a more sharply defined
main beam, both for transmitting and receiving. The antenna beam
direction is a function of frequency. Over the full range of trans-
mission frequencies, the beam direction will vary approximately seven
degrees in azimuth and one degree in elevation. This variation in
beam direction is referred to as squint, and seriously degrades the
search function of the radar unless it is compensated for.

(3) Transmit Path. The high power transmit pulse leaves the
radar shelter and travels to the radar antenna assembly via flexible
and rigid waveguide. Various lengths of waveguide are provided to
vary the distance between the shelter and radar antenna assembly.

(a) Shelter to Antenna Waveguide. Three pieces of waveguide


(W4, WS, and W7) are required for any installation. Waveguide W7 is
rigid and oddly shaped. One end of W7 mates with the waveguide
flange on the outside of the pedestal assembly, SlAIAll. The other
end of W7 extends to the outer edge of the antenna. A 3.S-foot piece
of flexible waveguide (WS) connects to W7. Another 3.S-foot piece of
flexible waveguide (W4) connects to the waveguide flange on the
outside of the radar shelter. All pieces of waveguide are manufac-
tured so as to bolt together. One of the mating faces at each union
includes an RF choke cavity. As shown in FO-14, additional waveguide
elements (WI, W2, W3, and W6) may be inserted between W4 and WS to

S-9
increase the separation between shelter and pallet. The additional
waveguide elements may be inserted in any order and in any
combination.

(b) Stationary-to-Rotating Transition. The pedestal assembly


(frequently called the bell housing because of its peculiar shape)
contains the bullgear, the main bearing, the rotary joint, and
certain other electrical and mechanical devices such as cables and
sensors. The bullgear, driven by the antenna drive motor, causes the
antenna to rotate. The main (or thrust) bearing provides the
mechanical connection while the rotary joint permits electrical
connection between stationary and rotating portions of the antenna.

(c) Rotary Joint. The primary connection in the rotary joint


is for the transmitter RF output. The transmit pulse is brought into
the pedestal assembly from W7 through a section of rigid waveguide
(PN 337D780GOl), a short piece of stationary waveguide near the
bottom of the high power section of the rotary joint, which then
couples the transmit pulse to a rotating vertical coaxial member. The
stationary waveguide is impedance-matched to the vertical coaxial
member by a device which looks like a doorknob. Impedance matching
doorknobs are located at both the bottom and the top of the high
power (vertical coaxial) section of the rotary joint assembly. The
center coaxial member (inner conductor) has a rotary sliding joint.
The outer coaxial member (outer conductor) has a choke joint. The
vertical coaxial members pass upward through the center of the
slipring and S-band sections of the rotary joint. The upper doorknob
matches the coaxial line to the upper waveguide by which the transmit
pulse leaves the rotary joint. From there the energy flows into more
waveguide beneath the rotating platform of the antenna. This
waveguide is a short curved section (PN 336D901HOl) and waveguide
assembly W66. Then the RF energy is sent to the transmit manifold
via a flexible section of waveguide (PN ID1965HOl).

(d) Transmit Manifold. The transmit manifold is a dual-


manifold assembly designed to carry high power levels, and estab-
lishes the proper phase and amplitude of each of the 22 signals so
that the resultant transmit beam formed by the radiators has a
modified cosecant-squared pattern. The transmit manifold distributes
the transmit energy to the array via waveguide sections, phasing U-
caps, and circulators (see FO-15). The 22 identical ferrite circu-
lators receive energy from the transmit manifold and direct it to
sticks 9 through 30. The circulators perform a second function by
directing incoming target pulses to 18 x 18 matrices via the receiver
protectors. The circulators are symetrical three-port junction
devices; that is, the ports are spaced 120 degrees apart. A
permanent magnetic field permeates the ferrite material of each
circl .ator, causing RF energy to travel in a circulator direction
with_~ the circulator. The direction of rotation is counterclockwise
(see figure 5-2). Transmit energy, entering the upper right-hand
port, is forced to the left, where it escapes into the radiators.
Target echoes, entering the same port from the radiators, are forced
out of the bottom port to the receiver.

Figure 5-2. Waveguide Circulator Flow Diagram

(e) Radiators. Each of the 22 radiators, or sticks, is an


18-foot section of waveguide with small slots cut into the edge
(narrow wall) every. half-wavelength. The slots are cut at an angle
with adjacent slots at opposing angles. Cutting the slots with
alternate tilts causes phase reversal between slots which cancels the
180 degree phase shift caused by the half-wavelength spacing and pro-
duces an in-phase radiation pattern. The in-phase radiation pattern
forms a beam with specific direction, which determines the direction
in which the radiator will transmit and receive radiation. The 22
radiators are placed side-by-side in the same plane and with the
slots all in the same plane. They are arranged so that slots on
adjacent radiators are tilted in opposite directions with the spacing
between radiators constant. The resulting radiation pattern has an
elevation direction determined by the radiation phase relationship
between adjacent slots (on adjacent radiators).

d. Radar Reception. The radar reception circuits are shown in


simplified form in functional diagram FO-5. Refer to that diagram
during the following discussion.

(1) Introduction. The receive RF signal processing circuit
consists of the following components:
Item Qiy
Slotted waveguide elements 36
Circulators 22
2:1 Combiners 11
Low-noise amplifiers 12
18 x 18 matrices 2
11 x 6 matrix 1

RF receivers 7
STALO power divider 1

(2) Antenna General Information. The antenna is a planar-


phased array of 36 edge-slotted waveguide elements, also referred to
as sticks. All 36 elements are used for reception. Each element has
98 slots and is 18 feet long. The complete 36-element array is 11
feet wide. Microwave energy is received via the slots in the
elements, which are approximately 1/2 wavelength apart both horizon-
tally, slot-to-slot on an individual stick, and vertically, slot-to-
slot on adjacent sticks, and with adjacent slots cut in opposing
directions. This configuration causes the transmit beam patterns to
be a function of the phase relation between signals at adjacent
slots, and this characteristic causes the antenna to be directional.
Multiple beams, which are referred to as sin x/x beams, are used to
determine elevation. The advantage of this antenna used in this
radar set over a reflector antenna (used in other radar sets) is that
a phased array has substantially lower sidelobes and provides a more
sharply defined main beam for reception. When receiving, the 36
individual waveguides are combined in two steps in the matrix
combiner assembly to form the six simultaneous receive beams. These
beams provide overlapping elevation coverage from the horizon to 20
degrees each with the same low azimuth sidelobes. Each of these six
simultaneous beams has a receiver for search detection and height
finding. After beam forming, the RF signal in each beam is amplified
and converted to the IF of 32 MHz. These six channels of data pass
through IF rotary couplers to coaxial cables connecting to the IF
receiver assembly in the shelter.

(3) Receive Overall Description. Refer to FO-16 during the


following discussion. Since the radar set is designed to gather
height data as well as range and azimuth data, the transmit and
receive patterns are not identical. The antenna contains 36
vertically-stacked, slotted waveguide elements of which 22 are used
to produce the transmit beam.

(a) These 22 slotted waveguide elements are fed in proper


phase and amplitude to form a modified cosecant-squared transmit beam
pattern. This beam pattern provides a radar range of 240 miles with

5-12
height coverage over 100,000 feet. The receiver, however, is
designed to look at beam returns as symmetrical and disregards the
limitation imposed by the modified cosecant-squared beam pattern on
height. Target return pulses are received by the antenna's 36
vertically-stacked slotted waveguide elements to form 36 receive
channels. The 14 receive channels not common to the transmit path
connect two 18 x 18 matrices via coaxial cables. The other 22
receive channels are directed by 22 ferrite circulators to 22
receiver protectors used to prevent damage to the matrices and
subsequent stages of the receiver due to the power leakage and
reflected antenna power.

(b) The receiver protectors connect to the two 18 x 18


matrices. The matrices are 18 x 18 stripline couplers connected in
parallel; and perform the first step in forming the elevation beams.
The signals from the sticks are connected to the matrices in such a
fashion that every second stick is connected to the same matrix. The
resultant output signals from the matrices are such that the signals
from corresponding ports on both matrices represent adjacent beams
(in elevation) from the 36 element array. Each of these sets of
signals is applied to a 2:1 combiner to form one signal representing
a single beam that is wider in elevation. The upper and lower
signals from each matrix are not used, so 11 sets of signals are
applied to 2:1 combiners. The 11 outputs from the 2:1 combiners each
represents signals received from a different elevation. Each output
is applied to a separate low noise amplifier, and then to the 11:6
beam-forming matrix. The beam-forming matrix subdivides and
recombines the 11 signals in such a way that six beams of varying
elevations and elevation width are formed. The six beam outputs from
the 11:6 beam-forming matrix and one from omnidirectional sidelobe
reference antenna are applied to the monitor signal coupler.

(c) An RF monitor pulse from the frequency generator is


applied to the monitor signal coupler. The phase-coded RF monitor
pulse is generated and coupler-injected equally into each of the
seven signal paths. This permits the receiver to establish a gain-
reference-level for adjacent channel pairs which might differ from
one pulse repetition time (PRT) to another due to the difference in
operating frequency. The seven beam outputs from the monitor signal
coupler are applied to seven low noise amplifiers, which are used to
limit the noise levels in the receiver signals to the upper bands
only. The STALO input from the frequency generator is fed to the
image reject mixer via STALO power divider, which divides the STALO
energy into eight equal parts. The image rejection mixer is a
microwave balanced mixer and performs superhetrodyne conversion by
beating the target return signals with the STALO frequency to obtain
the 32-MHz IF phase-coded signal. The seven channel 32-MHz phase-
coded IF target from the image rejection mixers is coupled through
sliprings in the rotary joint to the six height IF receivers and the
sidelobe receiver. STALO energy reaches the receivers on semirigid
coaxial cable from the lower S-band assembly of the rotary joint.
The RF monitor pulse arrives via the upper S-band assembly. Single-
phase, 400-Hz power for the RF receivers is supplied through the
slipring section of the rotary joint.

5-13
(4) Receive Path. Radar energy reflected from a target is
received by all 36 sticks in the array assembly and routed to the 18
x 18 matrix assemblies. Each array signal represents a different
elevation beam. The signal from sticks 9 through 30 pass through a
circulator and a receiver protector before being applied to the 18 x
18 matrices.

(a) Circulators. The circulators connect the transmit and


receive paths to the antenna and prevent transmit energy from
entering the receive path. The receiver protectors short out any RF
energy above a certain level that might enter the receive path in the
event of a circulator failure. The receiver protectors also provide
a waveguide-to-coaxial-cable transition. Signals from the remaining
sticks pass only through waveguide-to-coaxial-cable transition
couplers before being applied to the matrices.

(b) Receiver Protectors. Twenty-two receiver protectors are


in the antenna to protect the receiving system from high levels of RF
caused by circulator failure. Each protector contains an RF spark
gap inside a gas-filled cavity. The gas ionizes at a set level of RF
energy, creating an RF short that blocks RF energy to the receiver.
The gas is maintained near the ionization threshold by a radioactive
igniter so no keep-alive voltage is necessary. The receiver
protector is classified as a radioactive unit. However, it imposes
no radiation hazard during normal routine maintenance provided the
protector case is left intact. Under no circumstances should the
unit be disassembled. The receiver protectors will function with or
without radar primary power on. Leakage power to the 18 x 18
matrices is limited by each protector to an average of 0.4 watts per
channel. Each protector assembly also provides a waveguide-to-
coaxial transition having an insertion loss of 0.4 dB. Target echoes
are normally far below the firing threshold and pass through the
protectors unaffected except for insertion loss.

(c) 18 X 18 Matrix. Two 18 x 18 matrices (figures 5-3 and


5-4) perform the first step in forming the receive beams. Each
matrix is a passive low-loss RF network that uses 3-dB directional
couplers, or hybrid junctions, along with fixed phase shifters to
form 18 contiguous beams from the signals fed to it by 36 sticks.
The receive signal from each odd-numbered stick is applied to an
input port of matrix A12. Likewise, the receive signal form each
even-numbered stick is applied to an input port of matrix A13. A
matrix has the property that a signal introduced aL one input port
will be equally divided in power among all 18 output ports, but phase
differences will exist among the 18 output signals. The amount of
phase difference is determined by the amounts of phase shift
introduced by the fixed phase shifters and directional couplers
within the matrix. The signal from each output port thus represents
a summation of signal components from each input port. Signal phasing
is such that 18 independent receive beams are generated, each for a
difference elevation angle. Each of these sets of signals is applied
to a 2:1 combiner to form one signal representing a single beam that
is wider in elevation.

(d) 2:1 Combiners. The 11 2:1 combiners receive two sets of
18 signals each from the two 18 x 18 matrices and combine them to
form one set of 11 signals. The connections between the matrices and
the combiners are such that corresponding ports from both matrices
are connected to the same combiner. Each of the combiners forms one
of 11 beams used to form the final six receive beams. The 11 outputs
from the 2:1 combiners each represent signals received from a
different elevation. They are each applied to a separate low noise
amplifier (LNA), and then to the 11:6 beam-forming matrix. The beam-
forming matrix subdivides and recombines the 11 signals in such a way
that six beams of varying elevation and elevation width are formed.
The 2:1 combiners are unique in that each must be in its designed
place. They are not interchangeable.

(e) Low Noise Amplifier. The output of each 2:1 combiner


assembly is applied to one of 11 LNAs which provide a gain of
approximately 22 dB. The amplifier signal output from each LNA is
applied to the 11:6 beam-forming matrix. Each LNA also accepts a
built-in-test RF signal input from the antenna BITE circuits. This
signal is coupled into the input, and the amplified signal is coupled
from the amplifier output to the monitor control board for testing
the operation of the amplifier.

(f) 11:6 Beam Forming Matrix. This is a stripline coupler


array that forms six receive beams from 11 inputs from the 2:1
combiners. Directional couplers within the matrix subdivide and
recombine RF energy from 11 inputs to form six beams of varying
elevation angle and width. The six beams are routed through the
monitor signal injector and applied to the RF receivers.

(g) Monitor Signal Injector. This is a stripline device that


receives the six output beam signals from the beam forming matrix,
and the sidelobe reference signal. An eighth signal, the RF monitor
pulse, is received from the frequency generator during system monitor
time. It is that eighth input which gives the monitor signal
injector its name. During receiver monitor time, a controlled-
amplitude RF test target (the RF monitor pulse) is injected equally
into the seven channels (six elevation-related beams and one sidelobe
path) of the radar receiver. That test target travels through the RF
receivers to the IF receiver area in the shelter. The injection and
utilization of the RF monitor pulse is not operator initiated. It is
a built-in, self-monitoring action which occurs during each PRT.
Another test, the operator initiated (MDS) test, also enters through
the signal injector. -In that case, a variable-amplitude, operator-
controlled RF pulse is sent to the signal injector on the same cable
as the RF monitor pulse. The MDS test pulse is applied only during
off-line testing.

(h) STALO Power Divider. The STALO power divider is a


passive device which subdivides the single STALO input into eight
equalamplitude outputs. Because there are only seven mixers (one in
each RF receiver), the eighth output port is terminated. The other
seven outputs are applied to the mixers in each of the RF receivers.

5-17
(~)~RF Receiver. The seven RF receivers are identical and
interchangeable modules. As shown on the block diagram (figure 5-5)
each module consists of an input miniature circulator, three high-
frequency amplifiers, and an image-reject mixer. Despite the label
ATl, the circulator should be considered as a directional isolator,
not an input attenuator. The RF receivers contain RF amplifiers,
mixers, and IF amplifiers. Amplified target returns are mixed with a
high-frequency clockwise signal from the STALO power divider. The
STALO power divider receives its input from frequency generator (unit
2) in the shelter. The STALO signal is always exactly 32 MHz above
the frequency of the preceding transmit pulse. Since the same
frequency generator is responsible for producing the transmit
frequency, it is exactly correlated with a similar change in STALO.
The mixing of STALO and echo produces a 32-MHz target pulse at the
output of the RF receivers. Other frequency components of the mixing
action are blocked by circuits prior to the output from each RF
receiver. The energy from the six receive channels and one sidelobe
reference channel is coupled out of the beam forming network
enclosure into the seven RF receivers and onto seven coaxial
conductors, which carry the IF signals to the slipring section of the
rotary joint. Upon leaving the rotary joint, the IF signals are then
carried by a short cable assembly to J5 on the side of the pedestal.
From there they are carried by cable WIO to the shelter (J32).
e. IFF Transmission/Reception. The IFF system transmits and
receives the IFF signals. The IFF/SIF antf na assembly includes an
AS-4007/T main antenna A5, an AS-400B/T bacKfill radiator A6, and a
hybrid duplexer assembly Al (see FO-l, sheet 3). The electronic
switch, although not a part of the IFF antenna, is described here.
The IFF transmission/reception diagram is shown in FO-6.

(1) General. The radiating structure is quite visible, being
the short, wide fixture mounted on top of the main antenna. The
duplexer is the small assembly mounted behind the radiating struc-
ture. The radiating structure (containing many dipole radiators
protectively covered) has a dual-shaped radiation pattern. Depending
upon the port (jack) through which a transmit pulse enters the
antenna, the device can radiate in narrow beam or broad fan. The two
patterns are shown in figure 5-1. The electronic switch is mounted
on the antenna structure (see figure 7-50).

(2) Transmit Path. The IFF system transmits three interrogate


pulses (PI, P2, and P3) every PRT. These signals are routed to the
electronic switch via J6 of the pedestal, Jl of the rotary joint,
through the sliprings, out of the rotary joint via J9/P9, and through
cable WI061 to J3 of the electronic switch. The PI and P3 pulses are
routed out Jl of the electronic switch to the duplexer via cable
WI091 (this is the sum channel). The P2 pulse leaves the electronic
switch at J2 (difference channel) and is routed to the duplexer via
cable WI092. The three transmit pulses travel between the radar
shelter and electronic switch on the same coaxial path. The
electronic switch consists of an RF switch, an RF filter, and a
diplexer, all integrated into a common stripline package.

(a) In operation, the diplexer receives the incoming signals


and separates the RF signals from the pulsed video switching signals.
When the incoming signal is a sum, or positive pulse, it causes the
RF energy to be propagated to the sum port of the electronic switch.
When the incoming signal is a difference or negative pulse, it causes
the RF energy to be propagated to the difference port.

(b) An RF low-pass filter with an operating frequency above


1120 MHz is located at each port to filter and couple the signal to
the hybrid duplexer of the antenna assembly. Switching between sum
and difference modes is performed by pin diodes in the electronic
switch. Switching voltage (sometimes referred to as video and dc
bias) is normally a dc level of 1.5 volts which arrives on the same
cable as the interrogate pulses. RF is routed along the sum path
(during PI, P3, and receive time) by that 1.5 Vdc. However, a -80
volt, l-usec control pulse arriving at the input to the electronic
switch causes the P2 RF pulse to take the difference cable to the
duplexer. This duplexer can alternately light each of the two linear
arrays of the antenna in either an in-phase (sum) or out-of-phase
(difference) relationship, depending upon the mode of operation
selected by the incoming signal.

(c) The hybrid duplexer applies signals to the two antenna


halves of the IFF antenna. The duplexer has two input ports, Jl and
J2, and has two outputs, PI and P2, which are either in-phase or 180
degrees out-of-phase. On initiation of the sum mode, each of the two
linear arrays are lit in-phase, thus forming a beam pattern having
low sidelobes. Initiation of the difference mode causes the two
linear arrays to be lit out-of-phase. In this difference mode, a
portion of the input signal to the duplexer is also coupled via J3
through cable W301 to Jl of the backfill radiator. The backfill

5-19
radiator is a single dipole mounted on the support for the reflector
at the back of the IFF antenna, and is necessary to round out the
back of the difference pattern. The difference beam pattern thus
covers most of the sum pattern except in the back lobe null area,
which is covered by the backfill radiator pattern.

(3) Receive Path. The receive path is the sum path only.

a. Amplifier-Demodulator AIAIIAIA4A2Al. Figure FO-7 is a sche-


matic diagram of the amplifier demodulator assembly. Refer to that
diagram during the following discussion.

(1) Introduction. Incidental deviation of the antenna struc


ture causes an imbalance in vertical sensor A3, which results in a
single output or two outputs .to the amplifier-demodulator. The
output (pitch or roll or both) is a 400-Hz signal whose amplitude is
proportional to tilt (unbalance). The pitch input is applied to pin
18 and the roll input is applied to pin 20.

(2) Pitch Processing. The pitch signal is processed by opera-


tional amplifier Ul. Operational am~iifier Ul consists of Ul, input-
resistors Rl and R3, filter capacitors C3 and C4, and parallel-
connected, feedback network Cl and R2. Ul is a high-gain, frequency-
compensated, operational amplifier (see figure 8-15). Input resis-
tors Rl and R3 are selected to provide the proper gain for Ul.

5-20
Filter capacitors C3 and C4 smooth the +lS vdc and the -IS Vdc inputs
at pins 23 and 22, respectively. Feedback network Cl and R2 provides
a smooth transition of output signal to input signal for stable
operation. The amplified pitch signal is supplied to sensor resolver
A4A3 by way of pin 19.

(3) Roll Processing. The roll signal is processed by opera-


tional amplifier U2. Operational amplifier U2 consists of U2, input
resistors RS and R6, filter capacitors CS and C6, and parallel-
connected, feedback network C2 and R4. U2 is a high-gain, frequency-
compensated, operational amplifier (see figure 8-lS). Input resis-
tors RS and R6 are selected to provide the proper gain for U2.
Filter capacitors CS and C6 smooth the +lS Vdc and the -IS Vdc inputs
at pins 23 and 22, respectively. Feedback network C2 and R4 provides
a smooth transition of output signal to input signal for stable
operation. The amplified pitch signal is supplied to sensor resolver
A4A3 by way of pin 21.

(4) Resolver Action on Pitch and Roll Signals. Sensor resolver


A4A3 is not part of the amplifier-demodulator; however, the pitch and
roll signals are acted upon by the sensor resolver. Therefore, a
brief explanation is presented. The resolver is part of the data
drive gear train; its rotor rotates at the same rate as (and in a
constant relative position to) the antenna. The two stators are
electrically 90 degrees apart (at right angles to one another), as
are true pitch and roll. Rotor RI-R2 is aligned in the same vertical
plane as the antenna radiation beam. Therefore, the output voltage
is the vector product of the sensor pitch and roll components rela-
tive to the instantaneous position of the radiation beam. The
amplified outputs of Ul and U2 are connected to stators in sensor
resolver A3. The output of the resolver is a varying amplitude 400-
Hz carrier signal, whose amplitude is modulated by the sensor pitch
or roll. The amplitude is then remodified by the resolver position.
The tilt signal (the voltage between Rl and R2) is returned to U3 in
the amplifier-demodulator by way of pin 2.

(S) Demodulator. The demodulator removes the 400-Hz carrier


from the tilt signal. The result is a varying dc whose amplitude and
polarity represents the amount and direction (respectively) of
antenna tilt. The demodulator portion of the amplifier-demodulator
consists of operational amplifier U3, input resistors R8 and RIS
through R17, filter capacitors C7 and C8, parallel-connected,
feedback network CRl, CR2, and R7, along with Ql, Q2, a bridge
circuit consisting of CRS through CR8, biasing resistors R9 through
R12, zener diodes CR3 and CR4, and voltage reference resistors R13
and R14.

(a) U3 is a unity-gain, frequency-compensated operational


amplifier (see figure 8-lS). Input resistors R8 and RIS through R17
are selected to provide the proper gain for U3. Filter capacitors C7
and C8 smooth the +lS Vdc and -IS Vdc inputs at pins 23 and 22,
respectively. Feedback network CRl, CR2, and R7 acts as a limiter
circuit (back-to-back, 10-volt zeners).

S-21
(b) Two 28-volt rms, 400-Hz reference signals control the
conduction of Ql and Q2. The two signals are of opposite phase (180
degrees apart). During the positive half cycle of the 400-Hz refer-
ence into pin 14 of AI, diode CR8 is reversed biased, while CR6 is
forward biased. With CR6 forward biased, the base of Q2 is tied
(through Rll and CR6) to the positive voltage on the cathode of CR4.
(CR4 is a zener rated at 5.1 Vdc.) That will turn off Q2, allowing
the resolver signal (TP5) to enter pin 3 of U3. At the same time,
the inverted 400-Hz reference on pin 1 of Al is backward biasing CR5
and forward biasing CR7. That will tie the base of Ql to the
negative voltage on the anode of CR3. Ql will conduct heavily and
short-out or inhibit any resolver signal from entering pin 2 of U3.
Pin 3 is the noninverting input to U3.

(c) The signal at TP4, in the example just given, will be the
same as the first half-cycle of the resolver tilt signal at TP5. As
the 400-Hz tilt signal carrier from the resolver changes to the next
half-cycle, the 400-Hz reference signals on pins 1 and 14 also change
phase. Q2 is turned off, enabling the resolver tilt signal (TP5) to
be inverted (input pin 2 of U3) by U3. All of the preceding actions
will result in the output signal at TP4 being a full-wave rectified
version of the input tilt signal at TP5. (Example waveforms are given
in figure 5-6.) The demodulated tilt signal is sent from the
amplifier-demodulator to the antenna tilt indicator circuit lA7A5 on
the power distribution panel by way of pin 4.

b. Monitor and Control A3All. Refer to FO-8, schematic diagram of


the monitor and control board, during the following discussion.

(1) Introduction. The monitor and control board monitors and


sends feedback data on the status of the on-line and off-line power
supplies, the pass/fail status of the four receiver protector groups,
the load/unload status of the first-in-first-out (FIFO) memories, and
the pass/fail status of the parity check. Serial data from the sig-
nal processor is transmitted on 75-ohm coaxial cable to differential
line driver Ul. This line is half duplex shared with the monitor
status word sent from the monitor and control board by line driver
U2. A second 75-ohm coaxial line carries the execute signal to line
receiver U28. This is an active signal that controls the timing of
all tests and initiates transmission of the data response word. The
execute signal is a pulse of 2 usec in duration. All signals are
non-return to zero with +5V = 1 definea as the inactive state and -5V
= 0 defined as the active state. The following data is significant:
Loading of commands is accomplished upon receipt of an execute
pulse for each word loaded into the monitor and control board.
For each word loaded, a corresponding execute pulse must be sent
to unload the command.
The first word loaded will be the first word unloaded and the
first test to be performed.
When the last word is unloaded, the monitor and control board
will return to the load state and can accept new commands.

(a) Command Word. The 8-bit command word is defined in
table 5-1. Bits A through E are used to control low noise amplifi-
ers. Bit F is used to control the receiver protector test. Bit G
(when it is a 1) signifies the last word to be loaded in a sequence
after which no additional words can be loaded. Bit H is the master
reset that resets the monitor and control board to initi.al loading
conditions. This bit must be a 0 when loading or unloading commands.

5-25
(c) Data Reception. Serial data from Ul is applied to the
heart of monitor and control board U3, a universal asynchronous
receiver transmitter (UART). The UART receives data serially on pin
20 and outputs data in parallel on pins 5 through 12. The timing
diagram for the UART is shown on figure 5-7. The UART receiver
converts serial data to 8-bit parallel data. The UART transmitter
converts parallel data into serial form and automatically adds start,
parity, and stop bits. The character format used is a start bit, 8
data bits, a parity bit that is always odd, and a stop bit. The data
rate is 9600 bits per second. No other character format is possible
as the UART control word is hardwired as follows:

1 Pin 38, CLSl, is a 1

2 Pin 37, CLS2, is a 1

3 Pin 35, PL, is a 0

i Pin 39, EPE, is a 0


~ Pin 36, SBS, is a 0

(d) Initialization. To ensure proper turn-on conditions, the


master reset bit is set and sent to the monitor and control board
enabling NAND gate U25B for the X signal passing through. The X
pulse then passes through U25B to the monostable U27B. The mono-
stable U27B sends a reset pulse to the UART, FIFO memories, J-K flip
flop, and the piP la "h. This reset places the board in the initial
load condition and loading in of data can start. This master reset
bit is also used if the processor and monitor control board get out
of synchronization on the load/unload cycle. The FIFO information
bit in the response word indicates to the processor whether the
system is out of synchronization. These are the only two times the
master reset bit is used, during initialization of the monitor board
and when the system is out of synchronization.

(2) General. The monitor and control board performs several


independent unrelated functions. For ease of explanation, they will
be explained functionally in terms of voltage regulation, develop-
ment, and monitoring; timing; receiver protection monitoring; and LNA
control.

(a) Voltage Regulation, Development, and Monitoring.

1 Voltage Regulation and Development. The voltage regulation


and development circuitry consists of U29, U30, and capacitors C41
through C44 (see FO-8, sheet 3.) The inputs, +12 Vdc and -12 Vdc,
are from ±12 Vdc regulated power supply A3A9 which is filtered by C44
and C43, respectively. Voltage regulator U29 provides a regulated +5
Vdc output that is filtered by C41. Voltage regulator U30 provides a
regulated -5 Vdc output that is filtered by C42.

5-26
~ Monitoring. The monitoring circuitry for the on-line and
off-line +lS-volt power supplies consists of VRl, VR2, resistors RS9
and R60, and inverters U23B and U23C (see FO-8, sheet 2). Each
voltage is monitored by tapping of these voltages and dropping it
through a 12-volt zener diode (VRI or VR2). The voltage is then
filtered (R60, C40 or RS9, and C39) and applied to inverter U23B or
U23C. When a power supply output is normal, a high is present at the
input to the inverter. The output will be a low, which signifies a
pass condition. When the supply voltage drops to 13 volts or below,
a zero will be present at the input of the inverter and cause a high
(failure) to be sent to the UART (U3) for transmission.

(b) Timing. The timing circuitry of the monitor and control


board is shown in FO-8, sheet 2. Under timing, the material is
presented in terms of general, communication errors, data
transmission, and execution of commands.

1 General. The UART detects the data start bit when the
serial input lines goes from high to low. The UART separates the
start and stop bits, clocks the data bits into a parallel-out
register, and checks the parity of the command word. Timing for the
UART is done by crystal clock oscillator U4. The speed of this clock
is lS3.6 kHz (see FO-17 for timing diagram of monitor and control
board). The command word comes out of the UART in parallel and is
applied to the inputs of FIFO memories U6 and U7. The data will be
clocked into the FIFO memories on the execute (X) pulse trailing edge
through AND gate U26A. A second input to this gate is from the UART
communications fault outputs. These outputs flag parity, framing,
and overrun errors (U3, pins 13, 14, and IS) that occur in the
command word sent by the processor. When any of these errors occur,
a high appears at the respective pin output and becomes a zero at the
output of NOR gate U24A. This disables U26A so that if a communi-
cation error exists, the corresponding command word cannot be clocked
into the FIFO.

~ Whenever an execute pulse is received by the monitor and


control board, the response word is sent back to the processor. The
processor then checks the response word for correct parity. If there
has been a communication error, the processor will find this and re-
read the same command word back to the monitor and control board.
When correct parity has been received, AND gate U26A will be enabled
and the data can be clocked into the FIFOs. The third input to U26A
is from flip-flop US, which functions as a controller for the FIFO.
When the Q output is high, U26A is enabled and words can be loaded
into the FIFO.

b A sequence of commands is sent by the processor and


loaded into the FIFO. The last word in the sequence is designated by
bit G in the command word being high. When this word appears on the
parallel output of the UART, the high from bit G will appear at pin 9
of NAND gate U2SC. The other input to U2SC (pin 10) will also be
high due to the low on Q- passing through NAND gate U2SA. These high
signals create a low on the J input and a high on the K input of
flip-flop US. The flip-flop is triggered on the negative edge of the

S-27
execute pulse and the flip-flop changes states with Q- going high
enabling AND gate U22B. When U26A is disabled (Q going low), no more
commands can be entered into the FIFO.

£ Note that the command word is entered into the FIFO on


the negative edge of the execute pulse and flip-flop U5 changes
states on the negative edge.

2 Communications Errors. Communications errors that occur


when the processor reads a word to the monitor and control board are
also monitored. Communications errors include parity, framing, and
overrun errors. These three signals are combined in NOR gate U24A to
form a single communication error. When any of these errors occur, a
high appears on the output of the corresponding pin of the UART.
Fault (high) signals will become a low once passed through U24A.
This low signal disables AND gate U26A so that the command word
cannot be loaded. Erroneous command words can then be read over as
previously described. The low from U24A also passes through hex
inverter U23D to become a high (failure) signal going to the UART for
transmission to the processor. with no communication errors, all
inputs to U24A are low putting a high signal input, low (pass) output
of inverter U23D. Note that this bit only has significance when the
processor has sent data and is irrelevant when the monitor and
control board is executing commands out of "the FIFO.

3 Data Transmission. The format for the response word sent


back tothe processor is shown in table 5-2. A timing diagram for a
one word load/unload cycle is shown in figure 5-8. Immediately after
every execute pulse, the monitor and control board sends the response
word to the processor. On the trailing edge of the execute pulse,
monostable U27A fires a low pulse (approximately 10 usec long) to the
UART transmit holding register load TBRL-. When TBRL- is low, data is
loaded for transmission on UART pins 26 through 33. After U27A times
out and TBRL goes high, 0 to 1 clock period later the transmit
enable, TRE goes low, and data trans-mission begins. As TRE goes
low, line receiver Ul is turned off and line driver U2 is enabled.
The UART then transmits the start bit, 8 data bits, parity (odd), and
stop bit. Halfway through the stop bit, TRE goes high disabling line
driver U2 and enabling line receiver Ul, thus ending data trans-
mission. The monitor and control board is now ready to accept a new
command (load) or execute signal (unload).

4 Execution of Commands. When U22B is enabled (Q- high),


both the-FIFO unloading clocks and the parallel latch U8 clock are
activated with the execute signal. The first word entered into the
FIFO will be present at its output, and will be passed through the
latch on the leading edge of the execute signal. On the trailing
edge of the execute pulse, the FIFO is clocked and the second word is
loaded at the FIFO outputs. For each word loaded into the FIFO, an
execute pulse must be used to unload each word. When a command word
is clocked through the latch, bits A through E go to programmable
read-only memories (PROMs) U9 and UIO. These bits are used for the
control of the LNAs. When the last word (code bit 7Q = 1) is clocked

through the parallel latch on the leading edge of the execute pulse
(X), the output of NAND gate U25A will be a low. This is due to both
inputs, code bit G and Q- being high. This creates a high at input J
and a low at input K of flip-flop US. The flip-flop triggers on the
negative edge of X setting Q high and Q- low. Now AND gate U26A is
enabled and U22B is disabled corresponding to a new load cycle where
the FIFO is empty and can be loaded with new commands from the
processor.

(c) Receiver Protector Monitoring. The receiver protector


monitoring circuitry has two basic functions: to monitor excess love
leakage through the receiver protector and to monitor the detector
diode, which measures the RF leakage through the receiver protector,
for an open circuit or equivalently a broken or disconnected cable.
These two functions are discussed independently (see FO-B, sheet 1).

l Open Detector Circuitry. The open detector circuitry


consists of diodes CRI through CRIO, transistors Ql and Q2, and
resistors R25 through R30. CRIO through R25 clamp the bottom of R26
and the emitter of Ql to approximately 0.6 volt. Each detector diode
circuit has a small forward bias applied to it from resistors R31,
R3B, R45, and R52. The detector diodes have a very low impedance RF
choke to ground, which normally cause the voltage through diodes CRl,
CR3, CR5, and CR7 to be insufficient to turn transistor Ql on.
However, if a diode should open or if an interconnecting cable should
break or is disconnected, transistor Ql will turn on. This causes
transistor Q2 to also turn on, which feeds +5V through diodes CR2,
CR4, CR6, and CRB to the voltage comparators. This voltage at the
comparator will exceed the reference level causing a high (fail)
condition at the output of all the comparators.

~ Excessive Leakage Monitoring. There are four identical


groups that monitor excessive leakage through the receiver
protectors. Since each of the four circuits are identical only one
group, GPl, will be discussed. Each voltage comparator has a
reference voltage of 320 ±5 mV at its negative (-) input, which is
adjustable by lK potentiometer, R35. Under normal operations the
leakage pulse will not exceed the reference level and the output of
the comparator will be a low (pass). When a pulse of sufficient
magnitude is detected, the detector pulse voltage exceeds the
reference voltage and a high (fail) signal appears at the output of
the comparator. In the remainder of this description, see figure
5-9 for the necessary timing data. When a failure signal appears at
the output of the comparator, it will be sent through the three-input
NAND, U32A, on the execute pulse. Note that the third input, TRE, is
always high when the execute pulse is high. This places a low on the
set input (51-) of latch U17C/D. This results in a high (fail)
condition sent to the UART. On the trailing edge of the execute
pulse, the TBRL signal goes low and the monitor information is
entered into the UART for transmission. Once the TBRL signal goes
high, (monostable U27A timing out) the TRE signal goes low and
monitoring data is transmitted to the processor. Coincidentally, the
TRE signal being low resets the latch by placing a high at the 5-
input and a low at the R-input. This resets the output of the latch

5-30
to a low (pass) condition for the next test. Note that since an
excessive leakage pulse appears only during RF transmission, the X
pulse must be framed inside the transmit pulse period.

(d) LNA Control.

1 The complete LNA control circuit is shown in FO-8, sheet 3.


The circuit does not include U29, U30, and capacitors C41 through
C44, since they were described in paragraph b(2)(a). The inputs at
P2-43, P2-7, P2-8, P2-9, and P2-26 are from 85, 81, 82, 83, and 84,
respectively, of the LOCAL LNA CONTROL panel. In normal operation,
85 is set to NORMAL causing the input at P2-43 to be open; therefore,
U24B, pin 5 and Ull, pins 4 and 5 are pulled high. Pin 6 of U24B will
be driven low, enabling U9 and UIO (3-state PROMs); therefore, the
PROM outputs vary in accordance with the PROM inputs. (Refer to
tables 5-3 and 5-4.) As such, the inputs at pins 1, 3, and 9 of U18,
U19, U20, and U21 will also vary. Pins 4 and 5 of Ull, when high,
disable Ull (the 3-line to 8-line decoder multiplexer); therefore,
all outputs are high. Also, in normal operation, 84 is set to 1
causing the input at P2-26 to be open,; therefore, pins 2, 4, and 10
of U18, U19, U20, and U21 are all high. In normal operation, the LNAs
are turned on in accordance with the PROM program. The PROM address
inputs are the outputs of register U8 (see FO-8, sheet 2). The
switch position for 81 through 83 is irrelevant when 85 is set to
NORMAL and 84 is set to 1.

2 When local testing is required, 85 is set to the LOCAL TE8T


position. In this position, the input to U24B pin 5 and to Ull pins
4 and 5 is a zero. Pin 6 of U24B will then be high, disabling PROMs
U9 and UIO. All PROM outputs will be a high impedance. When pins 4
and 5 of Ull are low, the decoder demultiplexer outputs vary in
accordance with the switch setting on the LOCAL LNA control panel as
shown in table 5-6.

Section III. FUNCTIONAL OPERATION OF MECHANICAL ASSEMBLIES

5-7. GENERAL. This section contains descriptions of significant


mechanical assemblies of the equipment.

5-8. MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY DESCRIPTIONS. A general description of the


mechanical features of the equipment is provided in section I of this
chapter. The following paragraphs describe in greater detail the
operation of two complex mechanical assemblies: the antenna drive
assembly and the synchro and encoder geartrain assembly.

a. Antenna Drive Assembly AIAIIA2. The antenna drive assembly


consists of an electric motor with a handwheel, a gearbox assembly,
and a matched ring gear and pinion set. The ring gear (bullgear) is
attached to the rotating pedestal, and the pinion gear is part of the
gearbox assembly. A simplified diagram of the assembly is shown in
figure 5-10. See the diagram during the following discussion.

(1) Drive Motor Bl. The motor is rated 5-hp, 3600-rpm,


208-Vac, three-phase, 400-Hz. Facing the handwheel end, the motor
rotates clockwise. Attached to the motor shaft is a handwheel that
provides a means for rotating the antenna to a predetermined setting
as indicated by the degree graduations on an azimuth ring. Combined
with a quick-release lockpin and anchor block the handwheel also
provides a means of securing the antenna.

(2) Gearbox Assembly. The gearbox assembly contains reduction


gearing to reduce rpm. The final speed at the antenna is 6 rpm. A
self-contained oil system using the splash method lubricates the
gears and bearings. Through the use of horizontal and vertical
shims, the gearbox assembly is precisely fitted to the pedestal
assembly, namely the ring gear and pinion. To maintain the proper
fit, dowel pins are installed in the gearbox assembly mounting
flanges during the initial installation at the factory.

(3) Ring Gear (Bull Gear) and Pinion. The ring gear and pinion
are a matched set, and neither component is interchangeable with a
comparable component of another matched set. When the gears are on
the testing machine at the factory, a flush surface is ground on a
group of three gear teeth: one on the pinion gear, two on the ring
gear. These teeth are marked so that the matched relationship can be
maintained during reassembly. The ring gear and pinion are com-
pletely enclosed by a shield that contains a 360-degree azimut~
scale. In the bottom part of the shield, an opening with cover plate
allows access to the ring gear for lubrication.

b. Synchro and Encoder Geartrain Assembly AIAIIAIA4. A simpli-


fied diagram of the synchro and encoder geartrain assembly is shown
in figure 5-10. See the diagram during the following discussion.

(1) The main drive gear on this geartrain assembly engages with
the rotary joint gear that turns with the rotating pedestal assembly.

the main drive in the geartrain assembly is coupled to synchros Bl
and B2, encoder AI, and sensor resolver A3. The shaft in synchro Bl
rotates 36 times for each antenna rotation, while the other data
sending units have a 1:1 ratio with the antenna.

(2) For the purpose of aligning synchros Bl and B2 and encoder


AI, the associated drive can be disconnected from the main drive link
by a clutch mechanism. The clutch amounts to a shaft that is
concentric to another shaft, and a clamp that binds the two together.
When the clamp is losened, the associated drive train can be turned
independently by an ADJ knob. Since the clutch mechanism does not
influence the sensor resolver drivetrain, the antenna is manually
rotated by the drive motor handwheel for alignment coordination of
sensor resolver A3. Also, for alignment purposes, all of the data
sending units are adjustable at the mounting flanges and at the
coupling/shaft connections.

CHAPTER 6

TROUBLESHOOTING

6-1. INTRODUCTION. This chapter contains detailed troubleshooting


information to enable the technician to find faults associated with
the antenna group of the Radar Set.

6-2. TROUBLESHOOTING PHILOSOPHY. The corrective maintenance concept


for the antenna group is generally limited to the "black-box level".
This means that the equipment has been designed so that a detected
fault can be rapidly isolated to an easily removed and installed line
replaceable unit (LRU) using test equipment and special tools author-
ized for organizational maintenance activities. The defective LRU is
removed and replaced using the procedures contained in chapter 7 of
this manual. The removed defective LRU is subsequently returned to
the depot for repair and returned to service. Faults associated with
the antenna are usually detected during the following operations:

a. Periodic Inspections. Most faults associated with the


mechanical equipment of the antenna group are discovered from visual
inspections conducted during the preventive maintenance routine. The
majority of mechanical faults are obvious and do not require
extensive fault isolation to correct the trouble. Damaged equipment
must be replaced or repaired upon initial detection to prevent
further damage which could contribute to total system failure.

b. System operation. Faults occurring during radar set operation


are detected by system degradation or by the absence of system output
data from the external operations/monitor centers. When a fault
situation occurs, the technician must be able to identify the cause
of trouble to a subsystem/group, and then isolate trouble to a
functional area within the suspected subsystem/group. Finally, the
technician must isolate the trouble to a specific LRU. Troubles
within the active electronic component group which includes the LNAs,
receiver protectors, and the low-voltage power supplies are detected
by the monitoring and fault isolation (MFI) feature of the signal
processor. (Refer to paragraph 6-3 below for details regarding use
of MFI.) In the case where MFI is not provided, the technician must
use conventional troubleshooting practices aided by functional
schematic diagrams in this manual and standard-type test equipment.

6-3. ANTENNA MONITORING AND FAULT ISOLATION (MFI). The signal


processor performs MFI on the following antenna components: LNAs,
receiver protectors, and the power supply monitor. In addition, the
MFI board interfaces with the IF receivers. The MFI checks the
following antenna functions:

• Tests LNA/receiver sensitivity

• Monitors receiver protectors to detect excessive RF leakage

• Monitors and switches dual low-voltage power supplies, if faults


occur.

6-1
When power is initially applied, the MFI self-checks itself and
monitors the antenna dc supply voltages. The MFI results are
indicated on the fault summary indicator panel by status lamps, on
the control panel MFI menus, and on the RF monitor oscilloscope.

a. Power Supply Voltages. The following is a list of voltages and


tolerances supplied to the IF receiver.

Voltage Tolerance

+5.00 ±0.25
+15.0 ±1.5
-15.0 ±1.5
+100 ±5

If the power supply is out of tolerance, the DEGRADED and MAINTENANCE


NEEDED lamps on the radar status summary indicator panel will be on.

b. Test Targets. Selecting TEST TARGET CONTROL on the processor


monitor menu results in the test target control menu being displayed
on the control panel. The test targets are used as a signal source
for testing and fault isolation of the receiver channels.

c. Use of RF Monitor Oscilloscope (Unit 3). Selecting


OSCILLOSCOPE VIDEO on the radar control panel calls up the
oscilloscope monitor video menu. The oscilloscope monitor video menu
consists of 11 different menus. Menus are used to select various
receiver video signals from one of seven receiver channels for
display on the RF monitor oscilloscope. (Refer to the signal
processor technical manual for waveforms and additional information
concerning the video displays on the oscilloscope.)

d. Control Status Indicators. The fault summary indicator panel


contains four system status lamps. The lamps and their purposes arE
as follows:

OPERATIONAL. lamp (Green) - All units are functioning normally.

DEGRADED lamp (Yellow) - Unit is operating below minimum


specifications.

FAULT lamp (red) - Component failure. A replacement is required.

MAINTENANCE REQUIRED lamp (blue) - An adjustment is required.

e. Isolation and Detection of Antenna Problems. To isolate and


detect antenna receiver problems, perform the following steps:

(1) On radar control panel, select RADAR OPERATION (top menu).

(2) On radar control panel, select CHANNEL CONTROL (radar


operation menu).

6-2
(3) On radar control panel, select ENABLED CHANNEL 1 (channel
control menu). Disable all other channels.

(4) On radar control panel, select TEST TARGET control


(processor monitor menu).

(5) On PPI and RF monitor oscilloscope, observe 12 range test


targets. If all 12 range targets are present and are
approximately the same amplitude, that receiver channel is
performing properly.

(6) Select each channel, one at a time, disabling all other


channels, and observe 12 test targets on PPI.

(7) If any channel indicates less than operational status,


perform the following steps:

(a) On fault summary indicator panel, observe status lamps


for the following indications:

1 If all lamps are green, the LNAs, the receiver


protectors, and the power supplies are operational.

2 If a yellow, red, or blue lamp is lit, a replacement


procedure is required.

(b) On radar control panel, select MFI STATUS (top menu).

(c) On radar control panel, select ANTENNA (MFI status menu).

(d) Observe subunit MFI status menu.

(e) Read message on subunit MFI status menu.

(f) Take appropriate indicated action to correct the fault.

(g) If the fault is not corrected, repeat steps (c) through


(e), selecting RECEIVER on the MFI status menu.

(h) If the fault is still not corrected, the problem is not


in the antenna. (Refer to the system manual (operation
and maintenance instruciions) for more diagnostic and
troubleshooting procedures).

6-4. TROUBLESHOOTING AIDS. Proceed as follows:

a. Fault Isolation Index. Table 6-1 lists the most common faults
associated with the antenna group that require manual troubleshoot-
ing.

b. Fault Isolation Procedures. Paragraphs 6-5 through 6-11


provide step-by-step instructions for correcting the faults
identified in table 6-1.

6-12. ROTARY JOINT TROUBLESHOOTING. Troubleshooting procedures
presented below are based on the premise that the rotary joint has
been determined to be faulty as a result of abnormal indications
encountered during radar set operation, or by scheduled preventive
maintenance performance check procedures.

a. Introduction. The rotary joint is a reliable piece of


equipment, but like all mechanical equipment, it is subject to wear.
The areas of wear in the rotary joint are the RF waveguide rotating
connections and the 16 RF signal and electrical power slip ring
connections.

b. Detection of Problem. To detect and isolate problems, perform


certain tests and monitor status conditions daily as described below.

c. Waveguide Leaks. To detect waveguide air pressure leaks


(and/or) RF arcing, perform the following steps:

(1) Monitor compressor on/off time ratio. If compressor


operating time is greater than three times the 10:1
(on/off) specification (down to 3:1), a leak is present.

(2) Listen for an RF energy leak in area around antenna


pedestal.

(a) If audible arcing sounds are present, a leak is probably


present.

(b) If all three above conditions are present, a leak is


present.

d. Isolation of Air Pressure Leaks. To isolate air pressure


leaks, perform the following steps:

(1) Manufacture a waveguide baffle by tracing around a


waveguide flange gasket (PN 138C882) on a piece of sheet
metal.

(2) Cut out baffle.

(3) Open waveguide path at last flange prior to rotary joint.

(4) Fasten baffle to end of open waveguide, after installing a


new gasket, using two C-clamps.

(5) Operate compressor-dehydrator lA26 and time the off/on


interval.

(6) If compressor interval is out of specification, the leak is


between compressor-dehydrator and the baffle.

(7) Use soap/water/bubble leak detection method with


compressor-dehydrator operating to find source of leak.

6-27
(8) If compressor interval is in specification, the leak is
after the baffle.

(9) Return waveguide system to original condition using a new


gasket.

(10) Move baffle to first flange connection after rotary joint.

(11) Perform compressor interval test again. [Refer to


step (5).J
(12) If waveguide system is out of specification, leak is in
rotary joint.

(13) Replace rotary joint (refer to paragraph 7-15) and return


it to the depot for repair.

(14) If waveguide system is in specification, the leak is beyond


the baffle.

(15) Return the waveguide system to the original condition using


a new gasket.

(16) Use the soap/water/bubble leak detection method with


compressor operating to locate source of leak.

(17) When leak is detected, repair flange connection and install


new gasket.

(18) Tighten flange screws.

e. Slip Ring Problems. Each IF signal slip ring has four parallel
contacts per ring for reliability. Very few problems arise as a
result of defective slip rings.

f. Detection of Problem. When the PPI indicates a loss of video


signals, the slip rings, along with other components in the signa:
path, are a possible cause. To detect the open or shorted component
in the signal path, perform the following steps:

(1 ) On radar control panel, perform the following steps:

(a) Return to processor monitor menu (menu II-77).

(b) Select TEST TARGET CONTROL.

(c) Select TARGET SELECT (menu II-81).

(d) Select 576 TGT/SCN : MOVING PHASE (menu II-82) .

(e) Return to processor monitor menu (menu II-77).

(f) Select OSCILLOSCOPE VIDEO.

6-28
(g) Select NEXT + until menu II-90 is displayed.

(h) Select CHANNEL 1; channell will highlight, deselect all


other channels.

(i) Select CI I OUTPUT.

(j) Select OSCILLOSCOPE VIDEO A-.

(2) Set oscilloscope to 500 usec per centimeter. Synchronize


oscilloscope positively on channel 4, use the 50-ohm dc
function for channell and channel 2.

(3) On oscilloscope channell, check that the channel interface


output is showing 12 test targets in range. Waveform
should appear as in figure 6-13.

(4) The 12 range marks will also appear on the PPI. Monitor
the PPI or oscilloscope for at least 10 seconds (one
antenna revolution).

(5) While monitoring the oscilloscope, select all other
channels, one at a time, deselecting all unused channels.

(6) If all seven channels show 12 range marks, then the system
loop is intact. If any channel is missing or considerably
lower than the other channels, the loop is open, shorted,
or degraded.

g. Isolation of Problem. Perform the following steps:

(1) To isolate the problem, switch RF receiver output cable of


the suspect receiver with the next RF receiver cable. If
the problem still exists, the RF receiver (or prior
component such as the LNA) is defective and must be
replaced.

(2) If the problem is corrected with the cable swap, then the
problem is after the RF receiver.

(3) To further isolate the problem, in the shelter, switch


input cables (to 32-MHz IF receiver) from known good
channel to suspect channel receiver input. If the suspect
channel now operates, the IF receiver and every component
after it is good.

(4) You have now isolated the problem to either the RF receiver
output cable, the slip ring, or the four segments cable
from the slip ring to the IF receiver input. An cr.: ..meter
check will indicate which unit is defective.

h. Repair. To repair slip ring problems, remove rotary joint and


return it to the depot for repair.

CHAPTER 7

MAINTENANCE

Section I. GENERAL INFORMATION

7-1. INTRODUCTION. This chapter contains site maintenance


instructions covering the antenna group of the radar set. The
maintenance data is divided into nine major sections listed below:

• Section I. General Information


• Section II. General Maintenance Practices
• Section III. Maintenance Support Information
• Section IV. Removal and Replacement
• Section V. Repair
• Section VI. Alignment
• Section VII. Service
• Section VIII. Special Maintenance
• Section IX. Performance Tests and Checks

7-2. MAINTENANCE CONCEPT. The maintenance concept for the equipment


consist of two general categories of maintenance: scheduled mainte-
nance and corrective maintenance. Scheduled maintenance is mainte-
nance that must be done at regular intervals to ensure the equipment
will continue to function satisfactorily. Corrective maintenance is
that maintenance that must be performed only when unsatisfactory
operation is detected. The goal of corrective maintenance is to re-
establish satisfactory operation as quickly as possible.

a. Scheduled Maintenance. Scheduled maintenance consists of two


major categories of tasks: performance checks and equipment service.
Certain overall performance checks must be made at regular intervals
to verify that the equipment is still functioning within its
specified design limits. Also, certain housekeeping tasks (cleaning,
lubricating, replenishing fluids, etc.) must be performed at regular
intervals to ensure that unforeseen interruptions in operation will
not occur because of equipment neglect. For ready visibility and
convenience of use, the procedures are repeated in summary form in
the Scheduled Periodic Inspection Workcards manual which covers the
scheduled tasks for this equipment, and all other radar set
equipment. The recommended schedule for the scheduled tasks appears
in the workcards.

b. Corrective Maintenance. The corrective maintenance concept


for the equipment is generally one of "remove and replace". This
simply means that the equipment has been designed so that detected
faults can be rapidly isolated to an easily removable assembly that
can be replaced with a working spare. The removed, defective
assembly is subsequently returned to the depot for disposition.

7-1
(1) Defective assemblies are removed and sent to the depot
facility. Many of the assemblies can be repaired at the depot using
the available resources. Some assemblies must be returned to the
manufacturer for repair, and a few assemblies must be discarded
because it is not worthwhile to attempt to repair them.

(2) Table 7-1 contains a listing of the major assemblies and


components of the equipment, in reference designation order. The
purpose of the table is to indicate repair dispositions, thus
providing maintenance technicians with a quick reference guide to the
corrective maintenance concept. Repair instructions for all items
listed as depot repairable can be found in the parent radar set depot
level maintenance manual.

c. Reference Designation. The antenna group itself has an overall


unit number, number 51. All significant mechanical assemblies,
electronic assemblies, and electrical components of the group are
identified as being a part of the group by the prefix 51. Thus a
power connector might have the reference designation 51Jl, where J
identifies the device as a connector jack. Single components
generally have a single class identification letter such as J for
jack, C for capacitor, R for resistor, etc. Complex assemblies
generally have the class identification letter A. Thus the receiver
enclosure assembly has the reference designation 51A3. A complex
assembly will often contain lower level complex assemblies. The
reference designations for lower level assemblies are constructed by
adding to the applicable higher level reference designation. Thus
the monitor and control board, located in receiver enclosure 51A3,
has the reference designation 51A3All.

Section II. GENERAL MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

7-3. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS. This manual is intended to provide safe


procedures and processes for accomplishing maintenance described
herein. It is, therefore, important that all the WARNINGs of
possible personnel injury be understood and observed by the users of
this manual. Changes or additions deemed necessary for safety
improvements should be submitted through channels to the prime AFLC
in accordance with T.O. 00-5-1. The users of this manual should also
be knowledgeable with the safety requirements cited in AFM 1271.01,
Ground Safety & Accident Prevention Manual, especially as it applies
to safe maintenance practices.

7-4. GENERAL. The general practices described in the following


paragraphs apply to all chapters and sections of this manual.
Maintenance personnel shall familiarize themselves with these general
practices before attempting any maintenance task on the antenna group
of the radar set.

7-5. COMPONENT REPLACEMENT. The following rules apply when removing
and replacing components of the antenna group:

a. Tools. Before using tools, be sure that they are clean and
free from nicks, burrs, dents, etc. that could damage attaching
partes) and/or component part.

b. Electrical Connections. Use extreme care when disconnecting


electrical leads or connectors. Do not use metal-jaw pliers or
visegrips on electrical connectors. Use electrical connector pliers
to loosen or tighten screw-on type electrical plugs. Tighten
electrical plug(s) handtight; then, apply an additional 1/8-turn
using electrical connector pliers. (Do not overtighten.) Before
disconnecting electrical leads, tag each lead to identify it with its
connecting point (terminal). Cover all disconnected electrical plugs
and receptacles to prevent entrance of dirt, moisture, etc. Use only
recommended protector caps (MIL-C-5501). Never cover electrical
connectors with plastic bags.

c. Identification of Removed Parts. Record critical measurements


and orientation requirements taken during removal or disassembly.
Tag parts for identification purposes. Keep attaching hardware
(screws, bolts, nuts, washers, etc.) separated according to their
placement. It is recommended that removed reusable parts be stored
in resealable plastic bags (Ziploc) and each bag identified with the
associated installation step.

d. Inspection of Removed Parts. During disassembly, inspect all


parts for serviceability. Discard all damaged parts in accordance
with current regulations.

e. Packings, Gaskets, and Seals. Discard all preformed packings


(O-rings), gaskets, and seals removed during disassembly. It is
recommended that old packings and gaskets be cut into pieces to
prevent their inadvertent reuse.

f. Dropped Hardware. Exercise extreme care not to drop nuts,


washers, or hardware in the subassembly. If an object is dropped, do
not proceed further until it is located and retrieved. A magnetic
retrieval tool (NSN 5120-00-545-4268) is a handy device for removing
small ferrous metal parts dropped into inaccessible places.

g. Lifting. Lift all heavy parts with the proper lifting device
to prevent damage to the equipment or injury to personnel. If
lifting devices are not available, have assistant(s) help in the
lifting and handling of the part. Do not attempt to lift any part
weighing over 11 kilograms (about 25 pounds) without assistance.

h. Installation of Attaching Hardware. When installing attaching


hardware, position lockwasher against head of screw or bolt. The
flat washer is installed between the lockwasher and the contact
surface of the part being installed. Be sure to use the correct bolt
and nut at installation. The bolt (or screw) when assembled and
properly torqued will protrude at least two threads beyond the nut.

7-6
7-6. TORQUE-TIGHTENING PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES. Throughout the
installation instructions contained in this manual, the technician is
instructed to tighten certain attaching hardware to specified torque
values. Proper torque limits are an important part of good
maintenance and must not be neglected. The following paragraphs
provide important rules and practices regarding torquing that should
be observed by maintenance personnel.

a. Torgue Wrenches. To tighten a threaded fastener, coaxial


connector, or hose connector (B-nut) to the proper torque value, use
the correct torque wrench for the desired torque range as follows:

Torgue Between: Torgue Wrench Tolerance


o- 25 in/lb 30 in/lb ±l in/lb
25 - 140 in/lb 150 in/lb ±5 in/lb
140 - 550 in/lb 600 in/lb ±5 ft/lb
30 - 140 ft/lb 150 ft/lb ±5 ft/lb
140 - 240 ft/lb 250 ft/lb ±10 ft/lb
240 - 1000 ft/lb 1000 ft/lb ±20 ft/lb

Note 1. To convert in/lb to N/m, multiply by 0.113.


To convert ft/lb to N/m, multiply by 1. 356.

Note 2. Check calibration sticker affixed to torque wrench to see


if it has been calibrated within the prescribed time
period. Normally, torque wrenches are calibrated every 6
months.

b. Use of Extensions, Adapters, or Crowfoot Wrenches. Use


extensions and/or universals only if necessary. When using a dial
indicator or preset type torque wrench, apply the load gradually
until the desired torque is reached. When an offset extension or
crowfoot wrench is used with a torque wrench, the effective length of
the wrench is changed. The wrench is calibrated such that the
indicated torque will be different from the actual amount of torque
applied when an extension is used. Therefore, when using an
extension, the wrench must be set to compensate for the increase or
decrease in actual torque as compared to indicated torque. Use the
correction formula in figure 7-1 to compute the proper setting.

c. Torgue Correction for Lubricated Fasteners. When thread


lubricants are used, the "dry" torque value used for that fastener
should be multiplied by a correction factor of 0.90. High stress
lubricants, such as antiseize compound, graphite and oil, molybdenum
disulphite, etc. are generally recommended for torque applications
because they tend to eliminate many of the variables associated with
torque to tension relationships.

d. Application of Torgue to Fasteners. The following general
rules apply when torquing fasteners:

(1) Prior to installation, be sure all threads are clean and


free of nicks and burrs.

(2) To obtain proper seating of parts, tighten the threaded


fasteners in a crisscross pattern similar to that shown in
figure 7-2.

(3) Do not tighten to the final torque value during the first
drawdown; uneven tension can cause distortion and
overstressing of parts. Seat and torque parts by
tightening the fasteners gradually until the parts are
firmly seated. Then loosen each one separately and apply
final tightening. Do not exceed the maximum torque value.

(4) Allow time for compression of gasketed surfaces by holding


torque for several moments.

(5) Apply torque to the nut rather than the bolt (or screw)
head. Discard any fastening device having rounded-off
wrench flats or torquing surfaces.

7-9
(6) Use only torque wrenches recommended for use within the
indicated ranges listed under paragraph 7-6a. Larger
wrench tolerances are too great and result in inaccuracies.

(7) Use thread lubricant only when the installation procedure


calls for its use.

(8) For hose connections, tighten coupling nut to required


torque, then back-off 1/4-turn. Retighten to recommended
torque. Do not torque hose when it is under pressure.

e. Application of Torgue to RF Connectors. Each cable terminating


with SMA or N type connectors must be tightened to a specific
recommended torque value. The recommended torque value for the SMA
type connectors is 7 to 10 inch-pounds. The recommended torque value
for N type connectors is 13 to 15 inch-pounds. Refer to table 1-3
for the required torquing tools for SMA or N type connectors.

f. Torque Value Cross-Reference Chart. Figure 7-3 provides


recQmmended torque values to be used for tightening common-type
screws, bolts, nuts; and fittings.

hex fitting (2) counterclockwise until fully extended.

(3) On power distribution panel lAl, set WG COMPRSR SF6 BLOWER


circuit breaker (1) to ON (up).

(4) After about 10 minutes, close purge valve (3) by turning


hex fitting (2) clockwise.

(5) Set WG COMPRSR SF6 BLOWER circuit breaker (1) to OFF


(down).
7-12. WAVEGUIDE MAINTENANCE. The various waveguide assemblies used
in the antenna group are considered precision equipment and must be
handled with great care. The waveguide maintenance procedures
necessary during installation are as follows:

a. Equipment and Supplies Required. Obtain the following items:

• Compound, lapping, Fed Spec SS-L-1682


• Oil, lubrication, general purpose, MIL-L-7870 (M55125GU)
• Soap and water solution (for leak detection)
• Solvent, P-D-680, type II
• Stone, lapping
• Towels, paper, Fed Spec UU-T-595

b. Maintenance Preparation. Prepare antenna for waveguide
maintenance per paragraph 7 8.
WARNING

To prevent personal injury to personnel, use


solvent P-D-680 in a well-ventilated area away
from open flame.

c. Procedure. Perform the following steps:

(1) Inspect waveguide as follows:


(a) Before assembling waveguide, inspect mating flanges for
defects such as scratches, nicks, burrs, cracks, and burn
marks.
(b) Minor scratches, nicks, and burrs can be removed. [Refer
to step (2).]

(c) Burn marks indicate that an arcing problem exists. If


present, investigate and correct cause for arcing.
Replace waveguide.

(d) Replace waveguide if any signs of cracks, breaks, or


corrosion (pitting) are present. Also, replace waveguide
if warped flanges exist.

(2) Small defects, nicks, burrs, and scratches can be removed


from surface of flange using the following procedure:

(a) Using lapping stone and compound, blend protruding edges


of nick, burr, or scratch until flush with surrounding
surface.

(b) Thoroughly clean flange with solvent P-D-680 and wipe dry
with paper towel.

(c) Apply a very thin coat (film) of MIL-L-7870 oil around


surface of flange, as a corrosion preventive measure.
(Do not use excessive amount of oil.)

(3) Comply with the following rules when assembling the


waveguide:

(a) Al.ways use new gaskets between waveguide mating flanges.


(Gasket functions as an air pressure seal and provides
continuity between mating waveguide sections.) Faulty
gaskets are a major cause for arcing.

7-20
(b) When connecting two sections of waveguide, first tighten
flange screws fingertight to prevent cross-threading.
Then, tighten screws in the sequence shown in figure 7-8.
Using socket-head key (allen) or screwdriver, torque
screws to prescribed value as specified in procedure.

(c) After assembly, purge waveguide system per paragraph 7-11


and observe operation of radar set compressor-dehydrator.
If compressor-dehydrator runs continuously, or if its
duty cycle is longer than normal, check for air leaks
using soapy water solution.

compressor-dehydrator shuts off. The indication should be
between 27 and 31 psig.

(4) Using watch with a second hand, verify that compressor-


dehydrator duty cycle is at least a 10:1 ratio (off-time
versus on-time). (Example: If the off-time is 16 minutes
and the on-time is 1 minute and 36 seconds, the ratio is
10:1.)

7-144
NOTE
When performing step (4), if the 10:1 ratio is
not obtained and the differential is too small,
it may be possible to reduce the differential
slightly before lowering the shut-off point.

(5) Remove compressor-dehydrator cover and adjust knurled knob


next to microswitch located at lower left corner of
compressor-dehydrator.

(6) Repeat steps (4) and (5) as necessary to obtain proper


ratio and differential.

8-1. INTRODUCTION. This equipment does not have a separate circuit


diagrams manual. Because they are few in number, the diagrams and
lists normally contained in a separate circuit diagrams manual are
included in this manual. Figures 8-1 through 8-21 are data sheets
for integrated circuit components that apply to the antenna group
circuit boards. A major component location diagram, overall block
diagram, and various functional, schematic, wiring, and timing
diagrams for the antenna group are shown in FO-l through FO-17.
