Abstract

Elements of the basic system for spotting airborne objects are described, and by means of a model radar set, the effects of such parameters as frequency, pulse width and repetition frequency, bandwidth of receiver and antenna beamwidth are evaluated, particularly with respect to range. Use of doppler effect and moving-target indicators described, also beacons. Principles of tracking radar.
