Abstract
The original patent for radar was registered by the Admiralty in 1928. However, it was not until 1935 that the Air Ministry took the initiative to develop radar. Following a meeting at the Air Ministry in March 1935, the Experimental Department of HM Signal School was instructed by the Admiralty, to start work on the development of radar for the Royal Navy. The paper describes the early development of radar, and its initial trials in ships, up until 1944, when the Services Electronic Research Laboratory was established.
