RADARS AND RADIO DIRECTION FINDERS

a) General remarks

The name Radar derives from “Radio Direction and Range.” The radar instrument gives bearing and distance to an object within its range. The system was originally developed to detect aircraft by an observer on the ground.

The principle employed consists of transmitting short powerful pulses in a concentrated beam, and most of the objects struck by the beam, reflect some of the energy back where it is picked up by a sensitive receiver situated in the same place as the transmitter. The echoes are made visible by means of the cathode ray tube. The antenna is rotating, consequently the complete horizon may be searched. The receiver draws a contour picture of the surroundings including ships and similar objects.

b) Radar at Sea

As an aid to navigation radar may be used only where identifiable objects appear within radar range. Usual ranges for ship radars are about 20 n. miles. Ship radar sets have the advantage of being independent on shore stations.

Modern sets are simple in operation and need relatively little space. Power requirements are approximately 1 kW.

c) Radio direction finding and radio beacons

Bearing by radio is the first electronic aid to navigation. Direction finders were developed during the First World War.

The direction finder consists of a radio receiver with a rotating frame aerial. When the frame is edged to the direction of the transmitter, maximum signal strength is obtained. When the frame is at right angles to the line of signal a minimum or zero signal is the result. The direction of bearing is seen on a scale divided in degrees. The zero signal point is most sharply determined and is used as a point of reference.
