Hint: A mono pulse means that the radar which transmits the single pulse only.

Complete answer:
The Mono pulse radar is that radar system that uses supplementary encoding of the radio signal to supply the correct directional details.
The mono pulse has the ability to extract range and, their direction produces a single signal pulse.
 Mono pulse radar systems can be constructed with the reflector antennas, the lens antennas or the array antennas.
Mono pulse antennas are used to track the target. Mono pulse gives much better target azimuth measurements than the measuring of the angular positions.
 Mono pulses systems generally contain amplify that and processing to give the better quality target code that information.
A single pulse is sufficient for the mono pulse being measured.
So, mono pulse is the important application of tracking a target.

So, the option (B) is correct.

Note:
There are huge differences between the radars and trackers, the radar searches the targets within a particular volume of a solid angle and within a given slant range in a given amount of that time.
On the other hand, the tracker, tracks the radar continuously, tracks the target and controls the position or the direction of the target that is in the range, the azimuth angle, the elevation angle, and the velocity.
In 1960, the radar was designed which is a mono pulse. This method is used as passive systems, like as electronic support that measures radio astronomy. It is constructed by the reflector antennas, the lens antennas or the array antennas.
