Radar is an electromagnetic system used to detect and locate objects through emitted waveforms and analyzing echo signals, enhancing perception beyond visual capabilities. It consists of components including transmitting and receiving antennas, and measures distance and speed of targets using signal processing techniques like Doppler detection. Training in radar systems covers design, functions, detection, and applications, catering to engineers, technicians, and managers.

2. Radar is an electromagnetic system used to detect
and locate objects. It operates by sending a specific
type of waveform (such as a pulse-modulated sine
wave) and detects the nature of the echo signal.

3. Radar is used to expand the individual's ability to perceive
the environment, especially vision. The value of radar is not
to replace the eyes, but to do things that the eyes cannot
do.
The advantage of radar is that it can measure the distance
or range to an object. This may be its most important
attribute.

4. The basic forms of radar include: a transmitting antenna,
which emits electromagnetic radiation generated by a
certain oscillator; a receiving antenna; and an energy
detection device or receiver. Part of the transmitted signal
is intercepted by the reflecting object (target) and re-
radiated in all directions.

5. What radar is most concerned about is the energy radiated
in the opposite direction. The receiving antenna collects the
returned energy and transmits it to the receiver, where it is
processed to detect the presence of the target and extract
its position and relative velocity.

6. The distance to the target is determined by measuring the
time it takes for the radar signal to reach the target and
return to the target. The direction or angular position of the
target can be determined according to the direction of
arrival of the reflected wavefront.

7. The common method of measuring the direction of arrival
is to use a narrow antenna beam. If there is relative motion
between the target and the radar, the shirt in the reflected
wave carrier frequency (Doppler detection) is a measure of
the target's relative (radial) speed, which can be used to
distinguish moving targets from stationary objects.
