Radar Range Calculator

Radar is an object detection system that uses electromagnetic waves to identify the range, altitude, direction, or speed of both moving and fixed objects such as aircraft, ships, motor vehicles, formations, and terrain.

This online physics calculator helps you to find the maximum range of the radar.


Radar Range Calculation

Transmitted Pulse Peak Power (Pt):
Maximum Power Gain of Antenna (G):
Antenna Aperture (Ae):
Radar Cross Section Area (S):
Minimum Detectable Signal of Receiver (PMIN):
Radar Range (RMAX):

Just copy and paste the below code to your webpage where you want to display this calculator.



Formula:

RMax = ( ( Pt *G* S * Ae ) / ( ( 4 * PI)2 * PMin))

Where,

RMax = Radar Range
Pt = Transmitted Pulse Peak Power
G = Maximum Power Gain of Antenna
Ae = Antenna Aperture
S = Radar Cross Section Area
PMin = Minimum Detectable Signal of Receiver
