8-B-15: TR - ATR - Circulators - Directional Couplers-1

8-15B1: The ferrite material in a circulator is used as a(an):

Phase shifter.

Electric switch.

Saturated reactor.

Loading element.



8-15B2: In a circular resonant cavity with flat ends, the E-field and the H-field form with specific relationships. The:

E-lines are perpendicular to the end walls.

E-lines are parallel to the top and bottom walls.

H-lines are perpendicular to the side walls.

H-lines are circular to the end walls.



8-15B3: A ferrite circulator is most commonly used in what portion of a RADAR system?

The duplexer.

The antenna.

The modulator.

The receiver.



8-15B4: A circulator provides what function in the RF section of a RADAR system?

It replaces the TR cell and functions as a duplexer.

It cools the magnetron by forcing a flow of circulating air.

It permits tests to be made to the thyristors while in use.

It transmits antenna position to the indicator during operation.



8-15B5: A directional coupler has an attenuation of -30 db. A measurement of 100 milliwatts at the coupler indicates the power of the line is:

100 watts.

10 watts.

1,000 watts.

10,000 watts.



8-15B6: What is the purpose or function of the RADAR duplexer/circulator?

An electronic switch that allows the use of one antenna for both transmission and reception.

A coupling device that is used in the transition from a rectangular waveguide to a circular waveguide.

A modified length of waveguide used to sample a portion of the transmitted energy for testing purposes.

A dual section coupling device that allows the use of a magnetron as a transmitter.
