MODULE A- INTRODUCTION TO RADAR<br />
4.1. M<strong>on</strong>ostatic Radars<br />
M<strong>on</strong>ostatic <strong>radar</strong>s use a comm<strong>on</strong> or adjacent antennas for transmissi<strong>on</strong> and recepti<strong>on</strong>, where the<br />
<strong>radar</strong>s receiving antenna is in relati<strong>on</strong>ship to its transmitting antenna. Most <strong>radar</strong> system are use<br />
a single antenna for both transmitting and receiving; the received signal must come back to the<br />
same place it left in order to be received. This kind of <strong>radar</strong> is a m<strong>on</strong>ostatic <strong>radar</strong>. Doppler<br />
<strong>weather</strong> <strong>radar</strong>s are m<strong>on</strong>ostatic <strong>radar</strong>s.<br />
4.2. Bistatic Radars<br />
A bistatic <strong>radar</strong> has two antennas. Sometimes these are side by side, but sometimes the<br />
transmitter and its antenna at <strong>on</strong>e locati<strong>on</strong> and the receiver and its antenna at another. In this kind<br />
of <strong>radar</strong> the transmitting <strong>radar</strong> system aims at a particular place in the sky where a cloud or other<br />
target is located. The signal from this point is scattered or reradiated in many directi<strong>on</strong>s, much of<br />
being in a generally forward directi<strong>on</strong>. Such receiving <strong>systems</strong> may also be called passive <strong>radar</strong><br />
<strong>systems</strong>.<br />
