Hi
I have decided to do my A-level Physcis coursework on how radar works. I was wondering if any of you guys here could give me some information about it or perhaps some links to sites that have infortmation about the workings of radar. I'm thinking of the radar that tracks aircraft in the sky, as opposed to ground radar for example.
I know the very basics - a beam is sent out from transmitter, hits aircraft, signal bounces back; but that is about it. Any help that you could give me would be greatly appreciated!
:cool: :)
