摘要
A system (10) for determining the range between a missile (14) and a target (18) adapted for use with a semi-active missile system. The system (10) includes a first circuit (12) for generating a periodic signal (24) that is periodically frequency modulated. A second circuit (16) determines a closing rate at which the missile 14 is approaching the target 18 via the periodic signal 24. A third circuit (16) determines a value containing information corresponding to the range and the closing rate via the periodic signal. A fourth circuit (16) determines the range from the closing rate and the value. In a specific embodiment, the first circuit (12) includes an illumination system (12). The illumination system (12) includes a periodically modulated carrier signal generator (32) that generates the periodic signal (24). The periodically modulated carrier signal generator (32) includes a frequency source, a frequency modulator, and an illumination system computer. The illumination system computer runs software for adjusting the modulation parameters of the frequency modulator. The second, third and fourth circuits (16) are included in a receiver system (16) onboard the missile (14). The receiver system (16) includes a front receiver located near the front of the missile and a rear receiver located near the rear of the missile (14). A receiver system computer runs software that implements the fourth circuit (16). The receiver system (16) includes a local oscillator for providing a reference frequency for the receiver system. The local oscillator derives the reference frequency from the periodic signal provided by the first circuit. In illustrative embodiment, the fourth circuit (16) runs computer software that subtracts the closing rate from the combination of closing rate and range and provides the range in response thereto.
