Summary
| Description |
English:
Animated GIF showing a rotating
waveguide antenna
of a typical
X band
marine radar
on a ship. It radiates a narrow vertical fan-shaped beam of
microwaves
perpendicular to the antenna bar, along the water surface. The rotating antenna scans the water surface surrounding the ship out to the horizon. The microwaves reflect off any ships present and some return to the antenna, causing a "blip" to be displayed on the radar screen.
