Basics of Radar Joe Hoatam Josh Merritt Aaron Nielsen
Outline History How it Works Basic Equations Range Ambiguity Doppler Effect
History RAdio Detection And Ranging 1887 - Heinrich Hertz experiments 1904 – Christian Huelsmeyer's demonstration 1940's – American and UK Research 1950's – Non-Military Usage 1958 – Doppler Radar
How Radar Works Transmitter & Receiver Signal Reflection Measurement Different Uses Point vs Distributed Targets
Range Ambiguity Pulse Repetition Frequency (prf) Too high – echoes from previous transmission increased Inaccurate Range Measurements
Doppler Effect Velocities of Moving Objects Phase Shift
