RECEIVER PROTECTORS:A TECHNOLOGY UPDATE

2022-03-21
●The 1970s witnessed the advent of modern radar systems employing transmitters that operate at wide pulse widths and high duty cycles,which caused a major shift in receiver protector development.New techniques were conceived to allow the development of fast recovery time receiver protectors that would cope successfully with the new radars wide pulse and high duty cycle characteristics.For the most part,these new techniques focused on reducing recovery time,developing true first-pulse firing pre-trans-mit/receiver(T/R) tubes and increasing the power-handling capability of diode switches and limiters.
●Since that time,there has been increasing concern about the handling and disposal of redioactive material,as well as pressure to increase operating lifetime(thus reducing life cycle costs).These concerns have caused receiver protector manufacturers to redouble their efforts to find ways to allow diode switches and limiters to handle a larger share of the receiver protector burden.This article discusses state-of-the-art techniques that are being employed currently to meet the requirements of modern radar systems while simultaneously reducing tube radioactive content and increasing life.
