Stimson's Introduction to Airborne Radar (Radar, Sonar and Navigation) 3rd Edition

Good introduction to RF and radar technology

This is a beginner radar book. It is *very informative* and the explanations are accessible, but there is no calculus, or differential equations, just a modest amount of freshman math. As the title says... "Introduction"If you want to know basically how the various radars work, this will be helpful. If you want the details skip it.Radar is a pretty rich topic so it is very fat; I'd guess this book probably a textbook somewhere :)As a radar beginner book, definitely 5 stars.

Great book that covers a wide range of topics from basic radar principles to AESA design, EA concepts, to stealth design. You will not find a better book at providing great visuals that help you understand the topics. I have read a long list of books on the subject and they do not compare to quality put into this book. It even has sections written by additional authors that are subject matter experts in the specific radar domains, including Adamy who wrote the EW 100 series. This is a great book for beginners and a good reference for those that need a refresh on the topics.

This is THE book on radar. Seriously, when everybody talks about radar books, Stimson is the name that always comes up first.The newer edition includes a lot more information on new and emerging technologies. The illustrations are nicely done and the math is easy to follow. Highly recommend for radar engineers and students at all levels.

This book has some of the best high-level technical descriptions of radar systems and principles. I took away 1 star because for a book that’s this expensive, my expectation is that the pages wouldn’t be so thin that the text from the other side of the page is legible.

Got this update knowledge for my job. Has been easy to follow and is generally to the point. Only complaint is that there is no answers to any practice problems. At least half of the would have been helpful.

Understandable and easy to grasp with great illustrations and text. A great reference for radar and EW professionals.

On page 200, excellent book.
