A Framework for Understanding: Deriving the Radar Range Equation
Application Notes
Current Trends and Technologies in Radar
For engineers and scientists, the names behind the earliest experiments in electromagnetism are part of our everyday conversations: Heinrich Hertz, James Clerk Maxwell and Nikola Tesla. If we fast forward from their work in the late 19th and early 20st centuries to radar systems in the 21st century, the fundamental concept—metallic objects reflect radio waves—has evolved into a variety of technologies that meet specific needs in terms of performance, cost, size, and capability.
