What Is Radar And How Does It Work? |
|
Answer» RADAR is an ACRONYM for RADIO Detecting And Ranging. Radar transmits the electromagnetic energy pulses in the space. These pulses get REFLECTED from an object e.g. an aircraft. This received PULSE which has very low power as compared to transmitted pulse is called Echo. The Radar system uses this echo signal to calculate distance and direction of the REFLECTING object.
