FLIGHT International, 26 July 1962 1 PRIMARY RADAR Cossor CR787 Operating in the " S" band (10 cm wavelength). This general purpose ground radar equipment eliminates rain echoes and efficiently discriminates between fixed and moving targets. A low receiver noise figure gives a significant range increase over that other wise attainable with similar transmitter power and aerial gain. Cossor CRD23 Radar Display System. An advanced display system for the P.P.I, presentation of air traffic control information which can be adapted to suit changing ATC requirements. Supple mentary units of standard sizes are added to the basic equipment as they become necessary to ATC needs. InterScan facilities provide for the simultaneous presentation of both Primary and Secondary Radar returns as a combined display. SECONDARY RADAR Ground Equipment and Airborne Transponders. These elements of the Cossor Secondary Surveillance Radar System extend ATC capacity by giving flight information automatically. The Ground Element (SSR4G) can be supplied to provide either two pulse or three pulse interrogation according to the system requirements of the user. Cossor Transponders are designed in accordance with the relevant ARINC characteristics, including height encoding, to function with ICAO recommended two and three-pulse interrogations. Maximum reliable range is 200 n.m. at 30,000 feet, the display being free at all times from ground clutter and rain echoes. Cossor Secondary Surveillance Radar Equipment has already been supplied to BO.AC, Air France, Air India International, London Airport and Orly Airport. METEOROLOGICAL RADAR Cossor Meteorological Radar CR353 A high performance 10 cm. meteorological radar suitable for use in any part of the world. The equipment is constructed in the form of basic and optional units which can be variously assembled to measure the direction and speed of winds in the upper atmosphere. Other facilities include weather surveillance and extend from the simplest to those required by a component station of a major weather reporting system. The degree of automation incorporated in the basic design of the equipment enables the whole wind- finding operation to be carried out by two operators. The addition of optional print-out equip ment will reduce the manning requirement to a single person. We are the only company in Europe who have developed, produced and supplied Secondary Surveillance Radar. We have produced the most up-to-date 10 cm. Meteorological Radar and haveorders or tenders throughout the world. Our 10 cm. Primary Radar is located in many of the world's major airports and fifteen of these systems are on order for the Ministry of Aviation.
