A

Centers of all digitized targets, do not allow targets to touch

18
Q

(5-5-(all)
Radar Separation {Target Resolution}

What is target resolution?

A

A process to ensure that correlated radar targets or digitized targets do not touch

19
Q

(5-5-(all)

Mandatory traffic advisories and safety alerts

20
Q

(5-5-(all)

A

> between teh edges of two primary targets or the edges of primary digitized targets

> between the end of the beacon control slash and the edge of a primary target or primary digitized target

> between the ends of two beacon control slashes

21
Q

(5-5-(all)
Radar Separation {Minima}

Separate aircraft by following what minima?

A

> less than 40 miles from the antenna:
-3 miles

> 40 miles or more from the antenna:
5 miles

22
Q

(5-5-(all)
Radar Separation {Vertical Application}

Aircraft not laterally separated, may be:

A

Vertically separated

23
Q

(5-5-(all)
Radar Separation {Exceptions}

Assign an altitude to an aircraft only after the aircraft previously at that altitude is observed at or passing through another altitude separated from the first by the appropriate minima when:

A

> severe turbulence is reported
aircraft are conducting military aerial refueling
the aircraft previously at that altitude has been issued a climb/descent at pilot’s discretion

24
Q

(5-5-(all)
Radar Separation {Passing or Diverging}

All other approved separation may be discontinued and passing or diverging separation applied when:

A

> aircraft are on opposite/reciprocal courses and you have observed that they have passed each other
-(or aircraft are on same or crossing/assigned radar vectors and one aircraft has crossed teh projected course of the other, and the angular difference between their courses/assigned radar vectors is at least 15 degrees)

> the tracks are monitored to ensure that the primary targets, beacon control slashes, FUSION target symbols, or full digital terminal system primary and/or beacon target symbols will not touch.

25
Q

(5-5-(all)
Radar Separation {Passing or Diverging}

Single Sit ARSR or FUSION mode when target refresh in only from an ARSR or when in FUSION mode—ISR is displayed.

Aircraft are on opposite/reciprocal courses and you have observed that they have passed each other, or aircraft are on same or crossing courses/assigned radar vectors and one aircraft has crossed the projected course of the other, and the angular difference between their courses/assigned radar vectors is at least:

A

45 degrees

26
Q

(5-5-(all)

28
Q

(5-5-(all)
Radar Separation {Additional Separation for Formation Flights}
