1.22 Interference Rejector
Mutual radar interference can occur in the vicinity of an-
other shipborne radar operating in the same frequency
band. It is seen on the screen as a number of bright
spikes either in irregular patterns or in the form of usu-
ally curved spoke-like dotted lines extending from the
center to the edge of the picture. Activating the interfer-
ence rejector circuit can reduce this type of interfer-
ence. The interference rejector is a kind of signal
correlation circuit. It compares the received signals over
successive transmissions and reduces randomly occur-
ring signals. There are three levels of interference rejection depending on the number
of transmissions that are correlated.
You can access this feature from the InstantAccess bar
™
, or from the menu. The avail-
able settings are: [OFF], [1], [2] or [3].
How to reject interference from the InstantAccess bar

cess bar
™
, then left-click to cycle through the rejection levels.
The available settings, in cyclic order, are: [OFF] o [1] o [2] o [3] o [OFF]...
