RADAR RANGE EQUATION INTRODUCTION One of the simpler equations of radar theory is the radar range equation. Although it is one of the simpler equations, ironically, it is an equation that few radar analysts understand and many radar analysts misuse. The problem lies not with the equation itself but with the various terms that make-up the equation. It is my belief that if one really understands the radar range equation one will have a very solid foundation in the fundamentals of radar theory. Because of the difficulties associated with using and understanding the radar range equation we
