What is Radar?
 RADAR (Radio Detection And Ranging) is a way to

detect and study far off targets by transmitting a radio
pulse in the direction of the target and observing the
reflection of the wave.

Radar observables:
• Target range
• Target angles (azimuth & elevation)
• Target size (radar cross section)
• Target speed (Doppler)
• Target features (imaging)

THE SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
 Radar Group: antenna,remote control,AFC,
interrogator
 Shelter: display unit, PPI(plane position

indicator), processor unit &
battery
 Motor generator: power supply
9
Terminal Equipment
T.D.R: target data receiver
 Parallax correction
 Threat evaluation
LINE CONNECTION ADAPTER:

receive data
2-wire telephone line

Radar beams can be attenuated, reflected and
bent by the environment
• Atmospheric attenuation
• Reflection off of earth’s

surface
• Over-the-horizon diffraction
SYSTEM FUNCTIONS
 DETECTION: Moving target data displayed
over PPI
 TARGET TRACKING: Track of moving target
 DECODING: Transmitted by VHF-FM/line

Functional description
 HT UNIT: main voltage to dc voltage
 MAGNETRON: RF power generator
LO+AFC:
decide frequency of radar pulse
17
CONCEPT OF LOW PROBABILITY OF
INTERCEPTION
 Low probability of Interception (LPI) :
Is to see and not be seen.
 Low enemy’s electronic counter-measures (ECM)
 Use narrow main-lobe and extremely low side-lobes
18
DETECTION OF LANDMINES
 The technology of ground penetrating radar

uses Ultrawideband (UWB) techniques.
 Detectburied landmines as small as 10 square

cm

Antenna
 PARABOLIC REFLECTOR:
rotating with a high speed. In the focus of the
reflector is a radiator, which emits the pulses,
and which receives the RF echo pulses.
 In the waveguide is the polarization shifter,

which causes the polarization of the RF
energy to be either horizontally or circularly.
21
DISADVANTAGES
 Time - Radar can take up to 2 seconds to
lock on
 Radar has wide beam spread (50 ft
diameter over 200 ft range).
 Cannot track if deceleration is greater than
one mph/second.
 Large targets close to radar can saturate
receiver.
 Hand-held modulation can falsify
readings.
22
CONCLUSION
 Military radars are one of the most important

requirements during the wartime
 Used for early detection of ballistic missile and also

for accurate target detection and firing.
 Advises the weapon crew which target can be

engaged first.
