Abstract
In this paper a comparison of pulse of fm radar altimeters is made from the standpoint of the mathematical expressions describing each system’s return signal from terrain at near-vertical incidence. The pulse-fm radar relationships resulting from this comparison facilitates application of the extensive information gained in previous pulse radar studies to the investigation of fm radar terrain return and the associated design of fm radar altimeters, and may also assist in the development of the new pulse-type radars.
