radar transmitters emit high-power radiofrequency radiation by creation of a high-voltage and high-frequency alternating electrical current.health effects of occupational exposure to military radar were investigated. visual reaction time was recorded with a simple blind computer-assisted-visual reaction time test. to assess the short-term memory, modified wechsler memory scale test was performe...

Radar engineers and operators measure the radar return of a given target from a given angle in terms of its Radar Cross Section (RCS), from which they can detect and completely identify that target as its type, direction, and speed. The RCS of a target may have a huge value from one angle and at the same time has a very small value from another angle. So the challenge is to reduce the RCS of an...

Hiding from and surprising an opponent are tactics that have been used in warfare throughout history. They were features that aircraft originally possessed when they were first used in military operations. However, development of military technology is an endless struggle between advances in technology and counter technology. During World War II this struggle led to the development of a new tec...

Gunshot detection, sniper localization, and bullet trajectory prediction are of significant importance in military and homeland security applications. While the majority of existing work is based on acoustic and electro-optical sensors, this paper develops a framework of networked radar systems that uses distributed radar sensor networks to achieve the abovementioned objectives. The use of radi...

Air Traffic Control (ATC) radar, military Air Traffic Surveillance (ATS) radar and meteorological radar operate in S-Band frequency range. In fact 4G communication systems such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) make also use of these frequencies. Test and measurement of their coexistence is absolutely essential as performance degradation of mobile devices and networks and even malfunction of ATC rad...

Not later than 120 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the Committee on Armed Services of the Senate and the Committee on Armed Services of the House of Representatives a report on the effects of windmill farms on military readiness, including an assessment of the effects on the operations of military radar installations of the proximity of...

Laser and radar technology is an area of interest in the field of military research. Currently military services face many challenges in maintaining financial stability and sustainability in training phases. Military trainings exercises focus mainly on strengthening the simulation culture rather than focusing on theoretical aspects. In the sphere of military radars, simulators play very importa...

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an active remote sensing tool operating in the microwave range of the electromagnetic spectrum. It uses the motion of the radar transmitter to synthesize an antenna aperture much larger than the actual antenna aperture in order to yield high spatial resolution radar images (Curlander & McDonough, 1991). It has been applied to military survey, terrain mapping, a...
