In relation to radar systems that use pulse technology, the term Pulse Recurrence Rate (PRR) signifies the:
  • A
    ratio of pulse period to pulse width.
  • B
    the number of cycles per second.
  • C
    delay after which the process re-starts.
  • D
    number of pulses per second.
Learning Objective 062.03.01.01.03: State that the range of a radar depends on pulse repetition frequency (PRF), pulse length, pulse power, height of aircraft, height of antenna and frequency used.

Pulse Recurrence Rate is as it sounds, The rate at which pulses are emitted. This is exactly the same thing as PRF (Pulse Repetition Frequency), and is measured per unit of time, which is per second.

Therefore, this is just the amount of pulses transmitted per second.
