Computation of Radar Equation using MATLAB.
Task:
Simulate the Radar equation (A). The program must consist of a reasonably
simple user interface that will enable users to enter the input parameters for
the Radar Equation.

Matlab Code:

c=3*10^8;
k=1.38*10^(-23);
Pt=input('Peak Power=');
A=input('Effective area of Antenna=');
sigma=input('Target Cross-Section=');
Te=input('Effective noise Temperature=');
B=input('Bandwidth=');
Fn=input('Noise Figure=');
R=input('Target Range=');
f=input('Frequency=');
lembda=c/f
Gt=(4*pi*A)/(lembda^2)
Pr=(Pt*Gt*sigma*A)/(16*(pi^2)*(R^4))
L=Pt-Pr
SNR=(Pt*(G^2)*(lembda^2)*sigma)/((4*pi^3)*k*Te*B*Fn*L*R^4)

Result:

SNR at T=100 SNR at T=200 SNR at T=300 SNR at T=400 SNR at T=500

Series 1

Result:
The graph shows that the value of SNR decreases with the increase in Effective noise
temperature and hence the overall efficiency of the system also decreases. Thus value of
effective noise temperature should be small enough so that the system should remain efficient.
