Summary
The course builds on the course Radar Technology I. Students apply their knowledge on real samples of radar traffic signals. Signal processing in PSR primary and MSSR secondary radar will be presented in greater depth. The description of the individual radar function blocks, measurement of basic parameters and block diagrams will be elaborated in greater depth. The student is also acquainted with the evaluation of radar function after installation and its control in operation. Part of the course is an excursion in a company that actively manufactures radar technology.
