This document summarizes a lecture on radar signal detection. It discusses detecting signals in noise, the radar detection problem, basic target detection tests, and how detection performance is affected by factors like signal-to-noise ratio and number of integrated pulses. It outlines concepts like probability of detection, probability of false alarm, and the tradeoff between the two. Integration of multiple pulses can improve performance through coherent or non-coherent integration. Fluctuating targets are also addressed.
Review of Radar Science, Technology, Applications, News, Publications, Industry, History, etc.

Lecture 5 from the Radar System Engineering course by Dr. Robert O'Donnell.
This document contains lecture slides about radar signal propagation through the atmosphere. It discusses various propagation effects including reflection from the Earth's surface, atmospheric refraction, multipath interference, and attenuation. It provides equations for calculating propagation losses and phase differences between direct and reflected signals. Examples are given of how propagation affects radar coverage and detection range for a shipborne surveillance radar system.
