i.e. from 0 to 320 NM. The 6-micros wide pulse echo is processed for ranges from 0 to 20 NM. The 18-micros wide pulse echo is processed for ranges greater than 40 NM. The 6-micros and 18-micros pulse echoes are processed for ranges between 20 and 40 NM

 -
in the turbulence mode (HIGH PRF), the HIGH PRF and LOW PRF pulses are interlaced. This causes simultaneous WX/MAP and TURBULENCE information. The 6-micros wide pulses 1 to 9 are transmitted at 1600 Hz and are used for turbulence detection. The 18-micros wide pulse 10 is used for the WX/MAP mode. The high frequency of the PRF required for turbulence detection (1600 Hz) limits the range of this detection to 40 NM.

 -
in windshear mode (VERY HIGH PRF) the 1.5-micros wide pulses are transmitted at 6000 Hz. The sequence of transmitted RF pulses consists of two staggered pulse trains, each with the different carrier frequency. Each pulse train has a PRF of 3000 Hz, providing 10 NM (minimum selected range on EFIS control section).

 B. Timing of Transmitted Pulses in WX/MAP Mode, in Doppler Mode (Turbulence) and in W/S Mode (Ref. Fig. 010A)
 -
in WX and MAP modes, at short ranges (less than or equal to 60NM) the period of pulse (four) transmission-reception is 5.6 ms. This causes an interrogation frequency (PRF) of 1280 Hz. For medium ranges (greater than 60NM and less than or equal to 165 NM), the period of pulse (two) transmission-reception is 8.4 ms at a PRF of 360 Hz. For ranges greater than 165 NM, the period of pulse (two) transmission-reception is 8.4 ms at a PRF of 240 Hz.

 -
in the turbulence mode (High PRF), the PRF is increased from 240 to 1280 pulses per second. The threshold of turbulent targets is precipitation velocities of 5 m/s. This threshold translates into a Doppler frequency shift of 312,5Hz. It explains the increased PRF.

 -in the windshear mode (Very High PRF), 64 pulses are transmitted during a period of 23 ms. The PRF is 3000 Hz.

 C. Controls and Indicating The various system controls are grouped on the weather radar control unit and on the EFIS control sections of the FCU. Radar image control on the NDs is achieved through the scale selector switches located on the Captain and First Officer EFIS control sections of the FCU.
