radagem

Radagem is a term that refers to the practice of using a radar system to detect and track objects, such as aircraft, ships, or weather patterns. The word is a portmanteau of "radio detection and ranging." Radar technology operates by transmitting electromagnetic waves and then receiving the reflected signals to determine the distance, speed, and other characteristics of the target. It is widely used in various fields, including military, aviation, meteorology, and transportation, for navigation, collision avoidance, and surveillance purposes. Radar systems can be active, emitting their own signals, or passive, relying on signals from other sources. They can operate in different frequency bands, each with its own advantages and limitations. The development of radar technology has significantly advanced since its inception in the early 20th century, with modern systems offering improved resolution, range, and accuracy.
