Radar Theory - Pulse, Bands, Attenuation and Discrimination

[@gidovke]

This is the clearest explanation on this topic that I've come across yet. Very helpful.

[@deckprep]

Thanks

[@searchformeaning85]

Awesome explanation from Captain Steve Tarrant (if I am not mistaken). Teaching is a talent not everybody has. Many have knowledge but to convey information easily is another story.

[@deckprep]

Thanks for the nice comment!

[@johnmacintosh4432]

Awesome explanation. Thank You, Sir.

[@deckprep]

You're welcome

[@SwedenShipAB]

Very helpful! Can't say anything else. Greetings from Åland islands!

[@30myacht6]

Brilliant - absolutley superb!

[@deckprep]

I'm glad you liked it. It took a long time to figure out how to make those animations in PowerPoint!

[@TheHarpanOnly]

This is what I looking for. My question, why X Band mostly used for navigation or surveillance radar instead of S Band while S Band will have farther detection range?

[@bhukyasama2957]

It is a clear cut explanation. thank you so much, Sir. Can you give explanation about radar earth curvature and about beam refraction

[@deckprep]

I don't have a deep understanding of refraction and I didn't teach much on that subject when I taught about radio wave propagation. I did find this online: www.radartutorial.eu/07.waves/wa06.en.html Do you have specific questions about refraction beyond the general theory?

[@marklacy5011]

Excellent refresher! Thanks

[@deckprep]

You're welcome!

[@NickNam3]

Beautiful Explanation, Thanks!

[@deckprep]

You're welcome!

[@xman7777]

Nice explanation...more nuggets of knowledge please 😀👍

[@deckprep]

Thanks. What kind of nuggets are you interested in?

[@connerfarr8072]

Couldn't we use software to discriminate between targets in line, knowing our pulse length we should know the pulse length of the returning pulse or eco. If we get a longer pulse than what we put out couldn't that represent more then one target or object present?

[@trevonneroach6318]

Best video thank you.. perfect explanation

[@deckprep]

You're welcome

[@HM-wm7xk]

1:34 ~ 1:36, is it better to understood the amplitude is diminishing instead of disappear ?

[@boryspimentel3983]

REALLY HELPFUL 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@byeongari8252]

whichis better to use/rely when in open sea and when near the shore?

[@deckprep]

In a ship setting, If you have both X and S band transceivers you will usually have one radar on X and the other on S. That is the best situation. I would use the X band to see greater detail on small ranges (6NM and less) and have the S band on longer ranges (6NM and more). If you are on a vessel with only an X band transceiver you will only use that.

[@byeongari8252]

@@deckprep thank you so much for the response, that’s really helpful. I’m a maritime student btw and I have a reporting tomorrow and that’s a good point to take into account 😁

[@deckprep]

I hope you have a safe and educational experience that builds your confidence and your skills.

Very helpful!! Thank you very much sir! 감사합니다!

[@deckprep]

You're welcome

[@ThePeyton301]

Take a look at the s band on icon of the seas. Damn thing is huge.

[@ercanarslan2122]

It is now clear why the current Iron Dome defense system radars are inadequate. If necessary, why can't cut-off multiple beam sector beams (stationary multi narrow beamwidths radiation) be created? Multiple sector beams Multiple target discrimination. Right?

[@ОлегАлексеенко-й9г]

thanks so much for video.

This is very helpful. Thank you so much. Please more about navigation equipments. Subscribed by the way

[@lyndalovon]

awesome!

[@deckprep]

Thanks!

[@abrahamcatalla6658]

Xband best for short range Sband for long range

[@deckprep]

You are absolutely correct. Did I say something different in the video or did I just omit saying that?

[@Lewisg98VIDS]

Thnx clown
