Advantages of Solid State Radar over Magnetron Radars

For the longest time (since WWII), marine radars have used cavity magnetrons which transmit radio-frequency energy in quick, high-powered bursts. While it did the job for the most part, it wasn’t until 2016 that marine manufacturers introduced all-new, digital solid state transistors into their radar systems. Solid state radars broadcast lower-powered bursts of RF energy […]
