Radar technology is one of the most advanced technologies for measuring object distances from the earth. Because of this, there has been a variety of radar systems that are used for various purposes. Radar systems are classified under various categories depending on their functions and purposes. This list highlights some of the most common radar …
Broadband marine radar systems operate using a continuous transmission of the microwaves as opposed to the common traditional method of pulse transmission. How it works: Radar works on a simple principle of reflection. Radar systems contain transmitters that transmit microwaves that travel towards an object and hit the object at a certain angle and then …
The marine radar industry has been experiencing a lot of competition in the recent past with various radar companies coming up with different designs of radar systems with more advanced features. There is a variety of long-range and short-range radar systems that each play a significant role in marine vessel object detection. We take a …
Solid-state radar and magnetron are two radar techniques that work in competition with each other. However, solid-state radar is known to be of a higher quality and has a higher operational preference as compared to Magnetron radar. Below are some of the differences between the two. Solid-state radar 1. Low Maintenance: Solid-state radar does …

A Doppler radar is a specialized radar that employs the use of the Doppler Effect to produce velocity data on objects that are positioned at a certain distance. This is achieved by bouncing a microwave signal off from the desired target and then calculating how the motion of the object has affected or altered the …
Radar technology has in the recent past been in very high demand in the marine industry. This is because marine vessels rely on the radar for most of their navigational needs including collision avoidance. There are so many marine radars in the market to choose from. This list provides 9 of the best marine radars …
LiDAR technology is a remote sensing technology that measures the distance to an object by illuminating the target with a laser and then analyzing the reflected light. The laser pulses travel at the speed of light to the object and the laser is then reflected back to the sensors. The time taken for the pulses …
The transmitter is the part of a radar system responsible for the production of short-duration high-powered radio frequency pulses of energy that is subsequently radiated into space using an antenna. There are various transmitters depending on the scope and usage. We are going to look at the differences between the Guided Wave Radar level transmitter …
