About the book
Introduction to Radar Systems throughly covers the fundamentals of radar and its technology for the student and practicing engineer. It is easily used for a 10 week course and includes homework problems and questions. Solutions are available to the instructor. The text is based both on a graduate radar course taught by the author for many years. The third edition has been completely revised. I have used it as a course textbook at UCSD extension, and found it necessary to supplement with the latest technology post publishing date, but is still strong on fundamentals.
