When building a Target ID detector, is depth sacrificed for accurate Target ID?
Virtually all of the Target ID detectors made can find targets much deeper than they can identify them. Discrimination only requires one reference signal, which yields a positive signal for good targets and a negative one for bad targets. To identify the target requires some very special and complex electronic circuitry, which doesn’t have the ability to reach the same depth as a simple discriminator. If manufacturers limited the depth of their ID machines to the depth of the indentifier circuit, they would sell a lot fewer of them.
