The radar receiver

The spectacutar development of radar during World War II remains an outstanding achievement in the history of communications and the allied electronic sciences. With military necessity furnishing the required driving force and through the full interchange of technical knowledge among all interested workers in this field, it has been possible to extend our visual senses far beyond the horizons considered quite inelastic only a few years ago. The potentialities of radar in the peacetime world and the future application of radar design principles and techniques to the communications and allied fields justify a review of some further details of this wartime development.
