This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Variables
Constants Used
[c] - Light speed in vacuum Value Taken As 299792458.0
Variables Used
Target Range - (Measured in Meter) - Target Range is defined as the distance from the radar site to the target measured along the line of sight.
Measured Runtime - (Measured in Second) - Measured runtime refers to the time taken for an electromagnetic wave to travel from the radar transmitter, reach a target, and then return to the radar receiver after reflecting off the target.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Measured Runtime: 1.932 Microsecond --> 1.932E-06 Second (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula

Range of Target Formula

Target Range = ([c]*Measured Runtime)/2
Rt = ([c]*Trun)/2

What is a reference range negative?

he Doppler shift is negative when the object is moving away (opening range) from the radar, and is positive when the object is moving towards the radar (closing range).

How to Calculate Range of Target?

Range of Target calculator uses Target Range = ([c]*Measured Runtime)/2 to calculate the Target Range, The Range of Target formula is defined as the distance from the radar site to the target measured along the line of sight. Target Range is denoted by Rt symbol.

FAQ

What is Range of Target?
The Range of Target formula is defined as the distance from the radar site to the target measured along the line of sight and is represented as Rt = ([c]*Trun)/2 or Target Range = ([c]*Measured Runtime)/2. Measured runtime refers to the time taken for an electromagnetic wave to travel from the radar transmitter, reach a target, and then return to the radar receiver after reflecting off the target.
How to calculate Range of Target?
The Range of Target formula is defined as the distance from the radar site to the target measured along the line of sight is calculated using Target Range = ([c]*Measured Runtime)/2. To calculate Range of Target, you need Measured Runtime (Trun). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Measured Runtime and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
How many ways are there to calculate Target Range?
In this formula, Target Range uses Measured Runtime. We can use 1 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -
  • Target Range = ((Transmitted Power*Transmitted Gain*Cross Section Area of Radar*Effective Area of Receiving Antenna)/(16*pi^2*Minimum Detectable Signal))^0.25
