9.1 Radar overview Radar is used to provide information that can help you to track targets and measure distances and bearings. Radio Detection And Ranging (RADAR) is used at sea to detect the presence of objects (known as ‘targets’) at a distance, and if they are moving, detect their speed. Radar works by transmitting radio pulses, then detecti[...]

Antenna height (meters) T arget height (meters) Maximum range (Nautical miles) 5 10 12 Radar image quality A number of factors can af fect the quality of a radar image, including echoes, sea clutter , and other interference. Not all radar echoes are produced by valid targets. Spurious echoes may be caused by: • Side lobes. • Indirect echoes. ?[...]

Multiple Echoes Multiple echoes are not very common but can occur if there is a large target with a wide vertical surface at a comparatively short range. The transmitted signal will be reected back and forth between the target and your own ship, resulting in multiple echoes, displayed beyond the range of the true target echo, but on the same bea[...]

Interference When two or more radar-equipped vessels are operating within range of each other mutual radar interference can occur . This usually appears as a spiral of small dots from the display centre This type of interference is most noticeable at long ranges.

With experience, the approximate size of different objects can be determined by the relative size and brightness of the echoes. Y ou should bear in mind that the size of each on-screen target is affected by: • The physical size of the reecting object. • The material from which the object is made. Metallic surfaces reect signals better tha[...]
