Le radar primaire, c'est (...) la forme originale de la détection électromagnétique: un faisceau de micro-ondes est envoyé sur une cible passive et le signal réfléchi par celle-ci est traité pour en déterminer et faire apparaître sur un écran le relèvement et distance par rapport à l'émetteur (les radars tridimensionnels indiquent en outre l'altitude de la cible mais, essentiellement pour des raisons de coût et parce qu'il est possible de déterminer l'altitude des aéronefs amis par d'autres moyens, leurs applications sont actuellement limitées à la surveillance militaire). 1, record 13, French, - cible%20passive
