Abstract
For the third generation antitank guided missiles (ATGMs) with fire-and-forget and top attack capabilities, a noncoherent millimetric wave (MMW) active radar seeker has been configured with all weather capabilities. To meet the stringent dimensional and weight constraints and beamwidth requirements of ATGM, a W-band system has been designed with trans-twist antenna with a compact comparator. The paper covers the system description and critical design issues, and presents the performance results achieved so far. Areas for improvements, especially for achieving a higher range, have also been pointed out.
