Modeling is the process of producing a model; a simulation of a system is the operation of a model of the system. The model can be reconfigured and experimented with, although usually this is impossible, too expensive or impractical to do in the system it represents. The operation of the model can be studied, and […]

Radar is an incredibly useful detection system. In functional radar, radio waves are used to determine the distance (range), angle or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft, ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations and terrain. Originally invented and developed for military uses, radar systems are part of the social […]

Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) focuses on several arenas of intelligence gathering such as communications between people, known as communications intelligence (COMINT). Signals Intelligence is also useful for gathering information from electronic signals not directly in communication. This modality is known as electronic intelligence (ELINT). In an ELINT SIGINT (Signals Intelligence) operation, intelligence analysts have the ability […]
