 helical scanning[′hel·ə·kəl ′skan·iŋ]  (communications) A method of facsimile scanning in which a single-turn helix rotates against a stationary bar to give horizontal movement of an elemental area.   (electronics) A method of recording on videotape and digital audio tape in which the tracks are recorded diagonally from top to bottom by wrapping the tape around the rotating-head drum in a helical path.   (engineering) A method of radar scanning in which the antenna beam rotates continuously about the vertical axis while the elevation angle changes slowly from horizontal to vertical, so that a point on the radar beam describes a distorted helix.helical scanning
