About B.E.L
• Established in 1954 as a public Sector Enterprise under the administrative control of Ministry of Defence.
• BEL’s infrastructure is spread over nine locations with 29 production divisions having ISO-9001/9002 accreditation.
• Products ranges includes Defence Communication, Radars, Optical & Opto-electronics, Telecommunication, Sound and Vision Broadcasting, Electronic Components etc.
What actually is RADAR?
• Stands for RADIO DETECTION AND RANGING.• Is an EM system for the detection and location of
reflecting objects. • Operates by radiating energy into space and
detecting the reflected echo signal which determines the target location and information.
• Works on the principle of Echo and Doppler shift.
TYPES OF RADAR
• PRIMARY OR SIMPLE RADAR: Primary radar
locates an object by transmitting signal and
detecting the reflected echo.
• SECONDARY SURVEILLANCE RADAR (SSR):
A secondary radar system is basically very similar to
primary but it performs additional features like
controlling of air traffic, identifying the aircraft as a
friend or foe , determining the height of aircraft.
Basic Radar System
WorkingA Radar system, as found on many merchants’ ships, has three main parts:I. The antenna unit or the scannerII. The transmitter receiver or ‘transceiver’III. The visual display unit
RADAR EQUATION
•The amount of power Pr received by antenna is given by the radar equation:
where
Pt = transmitter power
Gt = gain of the transmitting antenna
Ar = effective aperture (area) of the receiving antenna
σ = radar cross section, or scattering coefficient, of the target
F = pattern propagation factor
Rt = distance from the transmitter to the target
Rr = distance from the target to the receiver.

High Tension Unit
•The high tension unit converts the 115v 400Hz 3
Phase mains voltage into a d.c supply voltage of about
4.2kv for the transmitter unit.
•The exact value of the high voltage depends on the
selected PRF(low , high or extra) to prevent the
dissipation of the magnetron from becoming too high
PRF the lower the supplied high voltage.

Receiver unit
•The Rx unit converts the received RF echo
signal to IF level and detects the IF signals in
two different ways, two receiver channel are

Antenna
•The antenna is a square parabolic reflector, rotating with a speed
of about 48 r.p.m. in the focus of the reflector is a radiator, which
emits the RF pulses from the circulartor and which receives RF
echo Pulses.
• In the waveguide is Polarisation shifter, which causes the
polarization of the RF energy to the either horizontally or
circularly. The polarization shifter is controlled by the system
operator.
Video Processor
• The video processor processes the MTI receiver channel, to
make the video suitable for presentation on the colour PPI screen
and for use by the video extractor.
•The main circuit comprised by the video processor are :
