RF energy travels at the speed of light, and so the round-trip time for an echo comes out to 12.4 microseconds per mile. The distance of the target from the transmitter is determined by measuring the time it takes for the echo to return. After sufficient time has elapsed so no more echoes are expected, the radar transmits another pulse. Click on Books or Magazines for printed copies. Limited time offer.
