Abstract

This research note identifies the precursors for development of shipborne radar for commercial and military applications. It comprises three main sections: first, the evolution of radar starting from the first practical demonstrations provided by Russian professor Aleksandar Stepanovich Popov in 1897; second, the invention of radar in eight nations; and third, early experiments with shipborne radars up to 1939.
