Abstract

This paper analyses the transient and steady state performances of a typical missile receiver AGC system. The analysis is done under the effect of periodic ON-OFF switching of a repeater jamming signal, both in the presence and in the absence of
the useful target-reflected signal. Exact formulae are derived for the resulting "blanking times". The most 'suitable values for the jamming waveform time parameters are deduced for maximum possible suppression of the useful signal mplitude measurement process.
