Is the Doppler radar the only satellite radar in the world?
Actually the Doppler Radar aka nexrad Next generation radar is not a satellite it is a radar. Satellites are floating around the world in space and Doppler radars are here on earth to monitor weather. As far as I know the Doppler radar is the only weather radar in the world. It is basically the only thing used for monitoring weather. I the above is not quite correct. Weather radars come in two basic types coherent and non-coherent. The Coherent radar come in Doppler Radar which can be FMCW or Active Pulse Doppler. The non coherent Pulse Radar merely aim high energy pulses at the clouds and display the returned power in a colour display. The coherent version integrates many pulses together to gain a Higher signal to Noise and to detect water drops moving in clouds. That aside, to answer the question which has nothing to do with weather radar, Doppler radar is frequency used in space verticals because its coherent processing gains in achieves help to offset the ranges it operates over, but it is not the only radar technique to be used on satellites and it depends on what the radar is trying achieve. Note that Doppler radar is non a synonymous exclusively of "nexrad Next generation radar".
What do you mean radar?
Radar!
What are the functions of a radar?
To detect, track, and sometimes identify objects via the emission of radio waves. Speed radar (like those used by police) can detect nearby objects and calculate their speed. Weather radar can detect the location of clouds and rain. Air traffic radar can detect and track unidentified flying objects. With the help a monopulse secondary surveillance radar, the radar system can identify the individual planes. Higher technology radars can detect and identify distant small objects with great precision.
Advantages of RADAR?
The main advantage of RADAR, is that it provide superior penetration capability through any type of weather condition, and can be used in the day or night time. Radar uses electromagnetic wave that does not require a medium like Sonar (that uses water) so can be used in space and air. Radar can be long range and the wave propagate at the speed of light rather then sound (like with sonar). It is less susceptible to weather conditions compared with Lasers.And be used at night unlike passive cameras. It does not require target cooperation to emit any signals or emission. EDIT- Simple fix in spelling and slight expansion to previous answer
Who made the radar?
As far as I know, radar was invented by a Hungarian scientist named Zoltan Bay. That radar was first used in World War II by the British troops.
What radar is a New generation of weather radar that is capable of detecting motion directly?
The new generation of weather radar that is capable of detecting motion directly is called phased array radar. This radar technology allows for faster and more accurate detection of weather phenomena such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and other severe weather events. It provides meteorologists with valuable real-time data to improve weather forecasting and warnings.
Where can I view Houston weather radar live?
You can see the Houston weather radar live on the weather channel of the city or you can go direct to the government website and ask for the weather in the area of Houston. Foxrad Storm seeker also offer a possibility to view the weather radar.
What is a good sentence with the word radar in it?
The radar was starting to detect weather coming.
What perdicts tornadoes?
weather radar
Where would one look online to see your local weather radar?
When looking to find the local weather radar then this may be possible by visiting local weather stations on the internet. The News on 6 advertises that is has a WARN Interactive Live Radar.
How is relativity determined?
by looking at the weather map or by looking at the weather radar.
What are the names of five free weather apps available on iOS devices?
Five free weather apps for iOS devices are: The Weather Channel Interactive App, My Radar Weather Radar, Accuweather, Weatherbug, and Weather Underground.
What instrument helps pilots to fly trough thick clouds?
Weather Radar are used. A weather radar helps a pilot to find out about the weather conditions while flying and they anticipate any changes in the weather.
What is the Doppler radar used in?
Weather and warfare.
What is a palindrome for used to predict the weather?
radar
What is the advantages of radar?
Radar does not require a light source and it has its own illumination source and can be used at night, Radar can be used so see though weather or indeed to track and monitor weather. Radar provides range and direction to provide a plan view of an area
What is a dopppler radar?
Doppler radar is a type of radar that uses the Doppler effect to measure the velocity of moving objects. It can detect the speed and direction of precipitation particles in the atmosphere, allowing meteorologists to track weather systems and predict severe weather events like thunderstorms and tornadoes. Doppler radar is an essential tool for monitoring and forecasting weather conditions.
