Conceptually, radar is pretty simple: send out a radio wave and time how long it takes to get back via an echo. However, in practice, there are a number of trade-offs to consider. For example, ...

The company has increased the speed of its 2026A 2.05-GHz. signal generator's pulse modulator to 15 nanoseconds. By replacing the pulse modulator in the unit, the speed of the pulse modulation rise ...

Tune into any TV weather report and you’ll hear the words “Doppler radar” as meteorologists track storms across California. But how does Doppler radar work? And how accurate is it? The concept of ...

The new ICs provide improved sensitivity, processing and memory, including short-range UWB pulse radar to detect the presence of a child in the car As cars get more intelligent, they’re getting more ...

Ampleon has launched four 700-W GaN-on-SiC RF transistors for S-band radar systems, operating between 2.7 GHz and 3.5 GHz. The CLS3H2731 and CLS3H3135 series leverage a radar-optimized GaN-on-SiC ...

For the coexistence challenge of co-located pulsed radar and communication systems operating over overlapping bandwidths, it was observed that the interference caused by the pulsed radar on the ...

In the realm of test equipment, there are a number of items that you don’t know you need until you need one. That’s probably the case with the HP11720A pulse modulator. [Tom] acquired two of these ...

Radar systems generally consist of a transmitter which can produce electromagnetic signal and which is radiated into space using an antenna. When this signals strikes an object it reflects into many ...

What will keep your brakes from failing or your airbag from deploying the next time you cruise past an airport? For many years, automakers have performed electromagnetic compatibility testing of ...
