Pulse Doppler radar combines pulse radar and Doppler radar principles to detect and track moving targets while also providing range information. This technology emits pulses of energy and measures the Doppler shift of the reflected signals to determine the velocity of moving objects. Pulse Doppler radar is commonly used in weather radar systems to track […]

Radar resolution refers to the radar system’s ability to distinguish between two or more objects that are close together. High-resolution radar systems can provide detailed images, allowing the operator to differentiate between multiple targets and avoid potential collisions. The resolution of a radar system is influenced by factors such as the frequency of the radar […]
A radar echo is the reflection of the radar signal off objects in the environment, such as other vessels, land formations, or obstacles. The strength of the radar echo indicates the size and distance of the object, while the shape and clarity of the echo provide information about the object’s characteristics. Radar echoes are key […]
The MG5437 Magnetron is used in Kelvin Hughes MK4 radar systems, offering 25KW X Band capability. It delivers sharp radar signals for dependable maritime target detection.
Radar systems often use pulse signals, where a short burst of energy is emitted and then reflected back from objects. The time it takes for the pulse to return helps determine the distance to the target. The duration and frequency of radar pulses can affect the radar’s ability to detect targets. Short pulses provide better […]
Radar systems operate across various frequency bands, with each band offering different advantages in terms of range, resolution, and penetration. Common radar frequency bands include X-band, S-band, and Ku-band. Higher-frequency bands like X-band offer better resolution, making them suitable for short-range detection, while lower-frequency bands such as S-band provide better range capabilities and perform well […]
The basic principle of radar is the transmission of electromagnetic waves, which travel through the air, reflect off objects, and return to the receiver. The time it takes for the waves to return determines the distance to the object, while the strength of the reflected signal reveals its size and nature. By continuously transmitting and […]
Radar works by emitting radio waves, which travel through the air, reflect off objects, and return to the radar antenna. The radar system then analyzes the time it took for the signals to return and the strength of the reflected waves to determine the distance, direction, and speed of the object. This data is then […]
RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging) is a crucial technology used in various fields, including marine navigation, aviation, and military applications. By emitting radio waves and analyzing the reflected signals, RADAR systems can detect objects and determine their distance, direction, and speed. Modern RADAR systems use advanced algorithms to enhance detection capabilities, ensuring safe navigation on […]
