NEW UNIDENTIFIED MOBILE ANTENNA
JURONG RADAR TEST FACILITY, CHINA SWN)
1. SIGNIFICANCE: AN UNIDENTIFIED MOBILE ANTENNA WAS SEEN FOR THE
R M T JURONG RADAR TEST FACILITY. THE CHARACTERISTICS
OF THE ANTENNA AND ITS TRAILER BASE SUGGEST TWO POSSIBLE
FUNCTIONS FOR THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT; MOBILE TROPOSCATTER
COMMUNICATIONS OR MISSILE TRACKING/TELEMETRY. (SWN)
2. REMARKS: THE MOBILE ANTENNA WAS ON A PAD JUST EAST OF THE
FACILITY. FOUR ASSOCIATED VANS/TRAILERS AND ONE
GENERATOR TRAILER WERE NEARBY. THE ANTENNA CONSISTS OF A
6-METER DIAMETER MESH-TYPE PARABOLIC DISH WITH A HORN-TYPE
FEED. THE DISH IS AFFIXED TO A PROBABLE HYDRAULIC,
LATTICE TOWER WHICH IS MOUNTED ON A DUAL-AXLE TRAILER. THE
DISH MAY BE ATTACHED TO THE LATTICE TOWER BY MEANS OF AN
AZIMUTH AND ELEVATION MOUNT. THIS TYPE OF MOUNT WOULD GIVE
THE ANTENNA THE CAPABILITY OF MOVING BOTH HORIZONTALLY AND
VERTICALLY; THEREFORE, IT WOULD BE SUITABLE FOR MISSILE
TRACKING/TELEMETRY FUNCTIONS. THE TRAILER BASE
VERY SIMILAR IN APPEARANCE TO OTHER DUAL-AXLE TRAILER BASES
SEEN WITH CHINESE EARLY WARNING RADAR SYSTEMS. (SWN)
THE ANTENNA IS SIMILAR TO THE 6-METER PARABOLIC DISH USED IN
THE OH-2000 OVER-THE-HORIZON (TROPOSCATTER) COMMUNICATIONS
SYSTEM MANUFACTURED BY THE NIPPON ELECTRIC COMPANY LIMITED OF
JAPAN. THE OH-2000 D40BILE STATION OPERATES IN THE 1.5 TO 2.3
GHZ AND 5 GHZ RANGE. (SWN)
AND IS STABILIZED BY FOUR OUT-RIG ~ .
