Abstract
A technique for operating a communication link in RF proximity to an operational radar. A data link waveform is employed which allows a data link receiver to detect an alert indication during normal radar operation. When the alert is detected, the system briefly inhibits radar operation to receive the information content of the data link message. A data link message rate is selected to keep the impact to radar operation at a minimum.
