What is Radar?

Introduction to Radar System

Electronic device to detect and locate object

Extend the capability of Man
What eye can not do (but not like eye)
Can see through Fog, haze, darkness, rain and snow
Measurement of distance of object (Important)

Radar Signal
Ba Range
Mostly : Narrow pulse modulated by sine If R in meters
c = 3x 108 m/sec and t in sec
If t =1 sec (round trip)
sh
R is
0.081 nautical mile (Accepted unit)
0.093 Statute mile
164 yd
492 ft
1 nautical mile = 6076 ft = 1852 m
ke

A radar mile = 2000yd

for short rang with less accuracy

Pulse Ambiguity in Range

IPP, PRI, PRF

PRF is determined by longest range at which target is expected

Conclusion
If PRF is too high, echo from target will arrive early
