An introduction to the key aspects of modern radar and the areas in which radar is applied. The initial chapters introduce radar and what it does, and the remainder of the book leads the reader through the principles of radar and its specialist language, and illustrates the applications of these principles. The emphasis throughout is on concepts rather than details, and the mathematical treatment is kept to a minimum although the key equations for performance evaluation are given. This book aims to provide an easy-to-read overview of modern developments in radar. It should be useful to undergraduates in electrical and electronic engineering, communications and physics as well as practising engineers in the radar industry, including new users.

What is radar? What systems are currently in use? How do they work? Understanding Radar Systems provides engineers and scientists with answers to these critical questions, focusing on actual radar systems in use today. It's the perfect resource for those just entering the field or a quick refresher for experienced practitioners. The book leads readers through the specialized language and calculations that comprise the complex world of modern radar engineering as seen in dozens of state-of-the-art radar systems. The authors stress practical concepts that apply to all radar, keeping math to a minimum. Most of the book is based on real radar systems rather than theoretical studies. The result is a valuable, easy-to-use guide that makes the difficult parts of the field easier and helps readers do performance calculations quickly and easily.
