• CONSISTS OF
1. Receiver-
Transmitter
2. Two antennas
(one for receive and
one for transmit)
3. An indicator
Radar altitude information may be displayed
from either a motor driven analog indicator
or from a digital readout indicator, and may
Also be displayed on the flight director
indicator
The analog radar altimeter indicator
•Provides an absolute altitude display from
zero to 2500 feet and includes a red
warning flag to indicate when the system
is inoperative.
• At altitudes within the usable range of
the indicator, proper system operation is
indicated by the absolute altitude pointer
being in-view.
Once the aircraft has flown above the usable
range of the indicator, the pointer hides behind
the mask in the top left corner and the warning
flag remains out-of-view.
Momentary signal loss within the usable range
of the indicator will cause the pointer to
disappear from view temporarily.
The digital radar altimeter indicator
This transit time is modified with a time delay and is converted inside the
indicator to distance in feet.
