Presents a review of "Stimson’s Introduction to Airborne Radar, Third Edition" (Stimson, G.W., et al; 2014). There are four authors and nine expert contributors to this third edition of a classic introductory text. The original and key author, George Stimson, started the original manuscript when he was with Hughes Aircraft Company in the early 1960s to 1970s. As a private publication, the book was initially given away or sold at a nominal charge to Hughes’s customers and Stimson’s friends. He is a fine writer and has managed the production of the book for years. From the beginning, the book has had clear graphics and meticulous formatting of pages. This is an impressive book with a total of 52 chapters in 10 parts. It covers almost everything concerning airborne radar. It could serve as an airborne radar encyclopedia. Each chapter briefly introduces its subject, providing neither too much nor too little material. There are some mathematical equations, but all are at the algebra level and easy to grasp. The text includes many color graphs, drawings, and nice pictures, which makes it very easy to read. I would recommend this book to every radar designer, technician, operator, administrator, and program manager. The book covers the Doppler frequency of an aircraft, ground return, and return by a semiactive missile.

机载雷达经典 [书籍和软件评论]


对“Stimson 机载雷达简介，第三版”进行了评论（Stimson, GW 等人；2014 年）。这本经典介绍性文本的第三版有四位作者和九位专家撰稿人。原作者和关键作者 George Stimson 在 20 世纪 60 年代初至 1970 年代在休斯飞机公司工作时开始撰写原稿。作为私人出版物，这本书最初被赠送或象征性地出售给休斯的客户和史汀生的朋友。他是一位出色的作家，多年来一直负责这本书的制作。从一开始，这本书就有清晰的图形和细致的页面格式。这是一本令人印象深刻的书，共 10 个部分，52 章。它几乎涵盖了有关机载雷达的所有内容。它可以作为机载雷达百科全书。每一章都简要介绍其主题，提供的材料既不多也不少。有一些数学方程，但都是代数级别的，很容易掌握。文本包括许多彩色图表、图画和漂亮的图片，这使得它非常容易阅读。我会向每一位雷达设计师、技术人员、操作员、管理员和项目经理推荐这本书。本书涵盖了飞机的多普勒频率、地面返回以及半主动导弹的返回。
