Exhibit 1: Description of Emission, Modulating Signal and Necessary Bandwidth The emitter is an X-band Airborne Maritime Surveillance Radar employing various complex waveforms and PRF’s. A description of the waveforms is as follows: The transmission power is: Mean – 32 to 400 watts at the output of the transmitter Peak – 7943 watts at the output of the transmitter ERP – 14.6 MW (ERP) The radar employs frequency agility. The radar transmits on one of 100 frequencies in the range of 9.05 to 10.05 GHz on a PRI to PRI basis or block to block (CPI) basis. The radar varies the nominal PRF from 300 to1600 Hz with 9.6, 10, 13, 30, 45 and 50 microseconds pulse widths according to mode selections (see Table 1). The radar employs an azimuth scanning radar antenna with rates from 1.7 rpm to 60 RPM, but may appear to scan at 120 rpm due to its back-to-back antenna design. The antenna may also stare at a target or sector scan a region of interest. The antenna 3 dB azimuth beamwidth is about 2.1° and the 3 dB elevation beamwidth is about 3.2°, with a gain of 35.4 dB above isotropic level. The radar transmits with a variety of Pulse Amplitude Modulated Linear Frequency Modulated waveforms including Linear FM chirp, Stepped Frequency, and Frequency hopping. The waveform characteristics are detailed in Table 1.

The Imaging mode PRF is fixed at 1100 Hz at 300 kts, but updated to maintain a fixed PRF/V. In general for these Radar modes PRF = 1100/300*V*cos (Squint Angle) where V = ground speed of aircraft, Squint Angle = (A/C Ground Track - Swath Ground Track 2. In the UH imaging modes, 3 separate pulses, each of 210 MHz, are transmitted and stitched together on receive 3. The PRF stager for LRCS, WAS100, WAS200, WX & NAV (100), WX & NAV(200) and SART is pulse to pulse. The PRF stagger for GMTI is block to block. There is no PRF stagger for A-scan 4. The pulse compression ratios by mode are LRCS – 3750, WAS100 - 600, WAS200 – 600, WX & NAV (100) – 120, WX & NAV (200) – 600, GMTI – 2025, 1012, 506 and A-Scan – 5400, 1800, 9000 5. The average and peak power shown are at the transmiiter output. The transmit losses are 2.75 dB (minimum) so the peak and average power at the antenna terminals is about half ( 0.53) of the power shown in the table. 6. The antenna gain is 35.4 dB for the VV antenna and 34.8 for the GMTI antenna 7. The GMTI transmit antenna is horizontally polarized 8. Non-GMTI antenna is veritically polarized
