Technical History of the Beginnings of Radar (Radar, Sonar, Navigation and Avionics) (IEE history of technology series)

The book sets out to explain the basic principles of radar and, where applicable, historical aspects of the evolution of these principles are dealt with. The study, while underlining the significance of the cavity magnetron, purposely restricts itself to the pre-cavity magnetron era of radar.
