Radar Introduction

A radar system operates in the microwave part of the radio frequency (RF) range. The
radar detects the position and movement of objects. Objects are shown on the radar
display at their measured distances and bearings in intensities according to echo
strength.
A guard zone tells you when the radar targets are in the area you indicate.
