Why didn't radar detect the incoming Japanese airplanes?

They did, but sometimes the planes would fly very low so that the radars could not detect them.


When was radar used?

Radar was invented and first used during the second world war. It is still, very much in use today.It's original use was to detect, and thus prepare for, fighter aircraft and bombers.Ships and aircraft use radar for navigation and collision avoidance.Air traffic control use radar to keep track of aircraft and keep them safe.Weather stations use radar to detect rain clouds.Radar is also being used in, experimental, driverless cars.


What is radar instrumental range?

Radar instrumental range refers to the maximum distance over which a radar system can effectively detect and track objects. This range is influenced by various factors, including the radar's power output, antenna size, frequency, and environmental conditions like atmospheric absorption and clutter. It essentially defines the operational limits of radar performance in delivering accurate measurements and target identification.


What are some nonmilitary uses for radar besides weather?

Radar can be used to detect distance to an object by determining round trip echo time. Some uses below: Level monitoring of substances in a container or silo-the radar antenna transmits downward from the top of the container and determines the distance to the top of the substance, allowing the operator to determine the amount of substance in the tank. Radar can be used by vehicle collision avoidance systems. Basically, any time distance to an object is required, radar is an excellent solution.


What is a radar receivers?

Radar receivers are electronic devices that capture and process the radio waves reflected off objects to detect their presence, distance, speed, and other characteristics. They convert the incoming radar signals into usable data, which can be analyzed to provide information about the surrounding environment. Typically used in applications such as aviation, maritime navigation, and weather monitoring, radar receivers play a crucial role in enhancing situational awareness and safety.
