JRC’s new IMO approved JMA-9172-SA, S-band Solid State radar, represents a new generation of marine radars, utilizing advanced signal processing technology to display targets with high accuracy while using a stabilized high-power solid state transceiver. The advanced radar functions and operation are based on JRC’s successful JMA-9100 radar series.

Advanced signal processingJRC’s new solid state architecture integrates an advanced signal processing technology that detects and displays information at a new level.These dedicated signal processing circuits are producing higher capability than a magnetron radar, and greatly exceeding detection performance.The solid state has a (peak) power of 250 W, superseding a typical marine radar in which the magnetron has a 30kW power output. |
This solid state radar will easily detect moving targets in clutter compared to conventional radars. A new Doppler filter at the heart of the solid state radar not only detects moving targets in clutter, but also determines and clearly displays them on the screen.
Advanced pulse compression with the 250 W solid state transceiver not only improves short range performance, but dramatically improves long range target detection while using only 1/100 of the power of a conventional radar.
The radar integrates a highly reliable solid state transceiver in place of a life limited magnetron. The solid state radar provides higher reliability and performance and will keep maintenance costs to a minimum. | ![]() Transceiver features protected enclosure |
The transceiver, by virtue of its solid state design, requires no tuning and pre-heating. Transmission is available immediately after the power is turned on.
Select a trail lengthOthers ships movement and speed can be monitored from length and direction of their trails, primary serving for collision avoidance. The JMA-9172-SA integrates three different trail length modes, that will show a ship’s course instantly. A unique operation features that allows for more flexibility. Example: |
Stand alone or DesktopThe JMA-9172-SA is JRC’s first brand new S-band solid state marine radar and variation of this model is a choice in desktop and stand alone. Interswitching (option)Optional interswitching (up to 8 displays) is possible with the JRC JMA-9100 series. Remote Maintenance System (RMS)
