SUGGESTIONS FOR TYPICAL METHODS OF USING DOPPLER RADAR SYSTEMS OF TRAJECTORY MEASUREMENTS DURING TESTS OF ARTYLLERY ARMAMENT AND ITS AMMUNITION

The article analyzes the report documentation of the tests in which the Doppler radar trajectory measurement system MFTR–2100/40 and the muzzle velocity measurement system SL-520PE were used to determine the trajectory parameters of artillery armament. The purpose of the article is to provide proposals for standard methods of using Doppler radar systems of trajectory measurements when testing artillery armament and its ammunition. The proposals for these standard methods are based on the experience of using the MFTR–2100/40 radar system and the SL–520PE muzzle velocity measurement system during the tests of the latest specimens of artillery and ammunition and relate to typical Doppler radar systems. When choosing the position and mode of operation of such Doppler radar trajectory measurement systems, it is always necessary to take into account safety measures, instructions for their operation, technical features (capabilities) of radar systems specified in this article, considering the interference environment during firing (shot) of artillery armament and experiment (test) conditions. Placing typical Doppler radar systems when taking measurements in unplanned places is dangerous for the crew and measuring instruments and leads to partial or complete loss of measuring trajectory information and reduced measurement accuracy. Abovementioned proposals are offered to be taken into account when developing methods of trajectory measurements using typical Doppler radar systems during testing artillery armament and its ammunition. Methods of measurements using standard Doppler radar systems of trajectory measurements should be developed in accordance with current standards (GOST 8.010-99, GOST V 15.211-78 and others) for a particular test, taking into account the results of analysis of the characteristics of samples to be evaluated, measuring instruments used, conditions and locations of measurements.

Sufficient Precision

Today, as the importance of system automation increases, measurement systems become more and more important. Consequently, in many applications, from washing machines, motorized vehicles, robots to nuclear turbine reactors, velocity measurement is inevitable. In industry, velocity is widespreadly needed to be measured. Besides that researchers through the globe need such measurement devices in their studies. On the other hand, to be able to make a correct measurement, it may be needed to pay much on measuring equipments while the economical issue is sometimes the reason for the research does not continue on or even not begin. So, it has always been a practical problem for both industry and researchers not to be able to measure the rotating velocity of machinery with both sufficient precision and low cost. In this paper, a very low cost but still precise velocity measurement system design is introduced, explained and discussed. First, building up of the sensor circuit and basic components of the system are introduced. Then, data acquisition and signal processing of the system are explained. Finally, advantages of the system are discussed and some conclusions are given.
