Abstract :
The behaviour of electromagnetic waves as described by the fundamental equations developed by James Clerk Maxwell around 1864, are governing the performance of radar technology and applications, along with appropriate signal waveform design, generation and processing. Novel radars are utilizing innovative modulation methods through digital signal generation and processing, with powerful data handling techniques and all-solid-state electronics, to realise the radar principles. Contemporary radar applications are particularly focused on (vehicle) traffic supervision and control, subsurface exploration, industrial measurements and automation processes, in addition to more sophisticated military applications.
