S-band radar

S-band radar operates in the microwave frequency range of approximately 2 to 4 gigahertz. It uses radio waves to detect and track objects such as aircraft, ships, or weather formations. The system works by emitting a pulse of radio energy that reflected off an object; the radar then receives the echo, allowing it to determine the object's distance, speed, and size. S-band radar is valued for its ability to scan through weather conditions like rain or fog, making it reliable for air traffic control, weather monitoring, and maritime navigation.
