Alternative terms: A-scan, A-scope, Range amplitude display (G.B.)

A display in which the targets appear as vertical deflections from a line representing a time base.

The target range is indicated by the horizontal distance of the deflection from one end of the time base.

The amplitude of the vertical deflection is a function of the signal intensity.
