Lecture 1from Forward2025

A course in Radar System Engineering by Dr. Robert O'Donnell.

The course was initially developed in 2000 for engineers and scientists with little radar experience. It covers core topics in radar fundamentals and subsystems over multiple lectures. The course has evolved significantly and now includes additional material on radar applications. It is intended to provide students a broad understanding of radar principles and issues.
