monopulse radar
Radar capable of estimating target position based on the return from a single pulse. In many radars, precise angular position is estimated by conically scanning a single beam around the initial coarse angle estimate; the orderly amplitude variation of echoes during such scanning provides the refinement. Such measurement is limited, however, by pulse-to-pulse fluctuations in echo strength, a property quite common in radar targets.
