这份报告提供了一些数据，人们可以从中获得脉冲式雷达系统在任何距离探测到给定目标的概率。这与通常以单个数字获得雷达距离的方法相反，在数学上可以理解为，在大于这个数字的任何距离上发现的概率为零，在小于这个数字的任何距离上的确定性。在该理论中引入了三个迄今在雷达距离问题中很少受到定量关注的变量：1.探测目标所需的时间。2.错误警报(目标的错误指示)之间的平均时间间隔。3.积分脉冲的个数。文中还简要说明了脉冲型系统的结果如何应用于连续波系统。那些关心包括雷达性能在内的系统分析问题的人可能会将这项工作作为涉及几个概率的链中的一个环节来使用，这是有益的。例如，假设有关于停机时间等的附加概率数据，则可以使用这里给出的数据作为基础来计算给定飞机在通过指定模型雷达网的任何给定路径飞行时至少被检测到一次的概率。这里发展的理论没有考虑干扰，如杂波或人为干扰，而只假设接收器输入端的随机噪声。此外，还假定了一种理想的电子积分器和探测器。因此，这是在理想条件下所能获得的最佳结果。然而，作出合理的假设，以便将结果应用于目前可用的雷达类型，并不是太困难。本报告的第一部分重述了已知的雷达基本原理，并为下文提供了连续性和背景。该理论的数学部分不包含在本文中，但将在随后作为单独的报告发布(2a)
This report presents data from which one may obtain the probability that a pulsed-type radar system will detect a given target at any range. This is in contrast to the usual method of obtaining radar range as a single number, which can be taken mathematically to imply that the probability of detection is zero at any range greater than this number, and certainty at any range less than this number. Three variables, which have so far received little quantitative attention in the subject of radar range, are introduced in the theory: l.The time taken to detect the target. 2.The average time interval between false alarms (false indications of targets). 3.The number of pulses integrated. It is shown briefly how the results for pulsed-type systems may be applied in the case of continuous-wave systems. Those concerned with systems analysis problems including radar performance may profitably use this work as one link in a chain involving several probabilities. For instance, the probability that a given aircraft will be detected at least once while flying any given path through a specified model radar network may be calculated using the data presented here as a basis, provided that additional probability data on such things as outage time etc., are available. The theory developed here does not take account of interference such as clutter or man-made static, but assumes only random noise at the receiver input. Also, an ideal type of electronic integrator and detector are assumed. Thus the results are the best that can be obtained under ideal conditions. It is not too difficult, however, to make reasonable assumptions which will permit application of the results to the currently available types of radar. The first part of this report is a restatement of known radar fundamentals and supplies continuity and background for what follows. The mathematical part of the theory is not contained herein, but will be issued subsequently as a Separate report(2a)
