Both the range noise spectrum and its probability distribution are shown. The distribution of the apparent reflection center in range generally lies wholly within the target, as can be seen from the curves at the right in Fig. 4-31. In this respect, range noise differs from angle noise. The reason lies in the different methods used for error detection in angle and in range. As in the case of angle noise, multiple targets which are not resolved will give rise to much higher noise levels than a single target. 4-9 PREDICTION OF TARGET RADAR CHARACTERISTICS Quantitative measurements of radar characteristics require special instrumentation which is not widely available and is costly. Furthermore, targets of interest may not be available for measurement. For example in a problem of the type outlined in Chapter 2, it is highly unlikely that such definitive target information will exist. Hence great importance attaches to methods whereby the characteristics of interest may be calculated. As.
