The article discusses the history of the radar system which was started to be conceptualized at the end of the 19th-century. Topics include the first real radar detection by German physicist Christian Hülsmeyer through the equipment called Telemobiloscope, the significant progress in radar techniques during the World War II such as for military applications, and an overview of the continuing evolution of radar from the rotating dish to the active phased array with digital beamforming.

The article focuses on the survey of radar warning receivers (RWRs) and radar electronic support measures (RESM) systems, used in airborne applications. Topics discussed include the use of RWRs in the European theater, during World War II, to the introduction of radars installed on British and German night fighters; the ability of the radars to guide surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) and air-to-air missiles (AAMs) by the mid-1950s; and the advent of digital receiver technology in RWRs.

The article offers information about the pulse-Doppler radar, a radar system that determines the range to a target using pulse-timing techniques, and uses the Doppler effect of the returned signal to determine the target object's velocity. It mentions that pulses from a pulse Doppler radar are in general longer than would be the case in a non-coherent radar.

The article offers information on the radar electromagnetic attack (EA) electromagnetic protection of the radars. It further discusses use of no coherent noise jamming against a simple pulsed radar; the jammer has the advantage of jamming directly into the maximum radar receiving antenna gain; and also mentions that phased array radars can be designed with reduced gain in the antenna elements at the edges of the antenna array.

The article informs about the electromagnetic protection of mono-pulse radars that has a single antenna with a single feed. Topics include a single antenna feed reflects into a parabolic dish reflector to transmit and also receives signals reflected by the reflector; and radar's tracking ability and makes the jamming ineffective with tracking ability.

The article offers information related to remote jamming, which is being used in making various types of radars. Topics discussed include lethal range radar controlled weapon, issues related to deceptive jamming technique, lethal range of weapons, depiction of two stand-off jamming aircraft that fight as a team and continuous jamming coverage against the hostile radars to protect multiple strike aircraft against multiple threat radars.

The article focuses on tall king and bar lock acquisition radars and its upgrades. Topics discussed include effective radiated power of the three versions of tall king radars, formulas for analysis of the jamming to signal ratio, and presents charts on tall king operational considerations and bar lock operational considerations.

The article offers information on how technology survey is taking a look at radar jammers for their introduction during World War II, radars have had a profound impact on modern warfare. Topics inlcude the radar developers are leveraging many types of new technologies especially from the commercial sector to improve radar performance, and the self-protection systems typically has focused on higher radar frequencies associated with target tracking and fire-control radars.

The article focuses on the Cobham Advanced Electronic Solutions Radar & EW Microelectronic Solutionsfacility is located in San Diego occupying 188,000 square feet of space with its seven buildings across the campus. It mentions the facility currently employs more than 1,000 people while running two shifts; and also mentions that Cobham Advanced Electronic Solutions has been producing fi lters and integrated microwave assemblies for space applications.
