                      GJ = 6 dB (4)            200 x 4     =     800 Watt

If    BWJ    then     PJeff    =    PJ x  (BWJ  /  BWR)
   
BWR = Bandwidth Radar
BWJ = Jamming Bandwidth Jammer
PJeff = Effective Jamming Power

 Gp     = Gain Processing (MTI, Integration etc.)
 PJ     = Transmitted Jamming Power (Watt)
 G    = Antenna Gain of Jammer

Under the above conditions the LOPAR could not detect the target early enough for an engagement!

 Chaff

 

 One CHAFF-UNIT (CU) = 50 sq. m

 500 Gramm aluminium CHAFF for the
  F-Band (3 - 4 GHz) consist of 1.37 million Chaff Dipols
 G-Band (4 -6 GHz)         "           2.05 million Chaff Dipols
 I-Band (8 - 10 GHz)        "            4.10 million Chaff Dipols
  

 Quantity of Chaff Dipols to simulate a specific target.

Equation:   N = deltaRCS    /    0.18 x lam2
N = Number of Dipols
 deltaRCS = simulated Radar Cross Section (RCS)
 lam           = Wavelength (9.12 cm for the example)
                                      deltaRCS       9.122
 Example:        N    =    100    /    (0.18 x 0.0083266)    = 66 720 Dipols are needed
