In a pulsed radar, the peak radar transmitter power is increased by a factor of 81 keeping all other radar parameters unchanged. The maximum range capability of the radar increases by a factor of
- A. 81
- B. 9
- C. 27
- D. 3
Answer: D. 3
Explanation: Range $(R_{max})\propto(P_{T})^{1/4}$. The increase in maximum range is $(81)^{1/4} = 3$.
