  • Second time around echoes are returns from large fixed clutter areas located a long distance from the radar. Because they originate from a large distance, such echoes are returned after a second magnetron pulse has been transmitted. However, they pertain to the first pulse transmitted by the magnetron. Such echoes are range ambiguous but, in addition, second time around clutter will not cancel. This is due to the fact that the phase locking of the COHO applies only to the last transmitted pulse.
