To meet the need for a compendium of radar information essential for design and performance analysis, a book should combine elements of both a radar text and a handbook. Radar Essentials, 2nd Edition: A concise handbook for radar design and performance analysis delivers on this requirement: it contains the radar principles, data, and equations most useful for practicing radar engineers and also material to help those who are not radar experts understand and use the information. The book is comprehensive, and serves as a complete radar reference, yet compact enough to fit on an engineer's desk or travel with them.
Coverage includes basic principles of radar design and analysis, characteristics of the major radar components, key radar equations, and tables and charts with the most-used radar performance data. The reader can go directly to the topic of interest, where references are provided to other helpful sections. It is intended as a reference for radar and aerospace engineers and system analysts and provides a handy desktop source as well as an essential traveling companion.
This second edition of Radar Essentials updates and expands on the material in the first edition and adds discussion of new radar techniques developed since the first edition was published.
G. Richard Curry is a consultant in radar system applications with extensive experience in radar system analysis, simulation, design, and testing. He led the analysis of radar systems at Science Applications International Corporation and General Research Corporation. Prior to that, he analyzed and designed surveillance and tracking radars at the Raytheon Company (now RTX), and performed radar engineering and ballistic missile range testing at Kwajalein Atoll for MIT Lincoln Laboratory. He served in the US Navy as a shipboard electronics officer. He received BS degrees in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics from the University of Michigan and an MS degree in Electrical Engineering from MIT. He is the author of Radar Systems Performance Modeling, Pocket Radar Guide, and Radar Essentials.
