Primary radar reads the reflected returns only.... Primary radar obtains slant-range information on the "target" from the time difference between sending and receiving the reflection. That is why there is no altitude information; one cannot extract it from this simple function. Secondary radar has a transponder-negotiation function, and is used in military IFF [identification, friend or foe] systems as well as civilian transponder systems.... Transponders are generally used to provide positive identification of the presence of an aircraft at the indicated position, for primary returns can be weak, or can occur from other objects besides aircraft. 3, record 4, English, - primary%20radar

Satellite navigation.... which has been developed over the last thirty years or so, essentially for military purposes originally, enables anyone with a receiver capable of picking up signals emitted by a constellation of satellites to instantly determine their position in time and space very accurately. The operating principle is simple : the satellites in the constellation are fitted with an atomic clock measuring time very accurately. The satellites emit personalised signals indicating the precise time the signal leaves the satellite. The ground receiver, incorporated for example into a mobile phone, has in its memory the precise details of the orbits of all the satellites in the constellation. By reading the incoming signal, it can thus recognise the particular satellite, determine the time taken by the signal to arrive and calculate the distance from the satellite. Once the ground receiver receives the signals from at least four satellites simultaneously, it can calculate the exact position. 2, record 17, English, - satellite%20navigation

The pre-war Army had no specific organisation for carrying out sapping, mining and tunnelling operations, although most men of the Royal Engineers received some training in the subject. Digging beneath an enemy position with the object of destroying it is essentially an act of siege warfare, and military planning did not believe that this was a serious possibility. However, by the end of 1914 it was clear that the entrenched positions of the Western Front were akin to siege conditions. 1, record 20, English, - tunnelling%20company

Perhaps the best definition of a "sphere of influence" is that of Hall :... an understanding which enables a State to reserve to itself a right of excluding other European powers from territories that are of importance to it politically as affording means of future expansion to its existing dominions or protectorates, or strategically as preventing civilised neighbours from occupying a dominant military position". 1, record 27, English, - sphere%20of%20influence

From a doctrinal point of view a special place must be allotted to what has been called "zones of influence" or "spheres of interest". This name was given in the imperialist era to those territories which a State unilaterally proclaimed to be an area which it intended to bring under its sovereignty by gradually appropriating it through actual occupation, or which two (or more) States delimited inter se with the same purpose. 2, record 27, English, - sphere%20of%20influence

A "sphere of interest" differs only in direction of emphasis from a "sphere of influence". A State asserts a sphere of interest in a particular region when it claims to possess in that region exclusive economic or financial concessions or exclusive rights of exploitation, which it will not allow other Powers to exercise. 2, record 27, English, - sphere%20of%20influence

sphère d'influence : Terme introduit à la fin du XIXe siècle dans la langue du droit international pour désigner un espace territorial dans lequel est reconnu à un État, d'ordinaire par un traité bilatéral, un titre particulier pour y établir son autorité et en acquérir la souveraineté, l'autre État devant s'abstenir de l'en empêcher ou d'y exercer une activité concurrente. 1, record 27, French, - sph%C3%A8re%20d%27influence

Des auteurs ont enseigné qu'entre le terme "sphère d'influence" et le terme "sphère d'intérêt" existent des nuances faibles sans doute mais cependant perceptibles : la sphère d'influence ferait songer plutôt à quelque but politique; la sphère d'intérêt, à quelque but économique ou commercial [...] 1, record 27, French, - sph%C3%A8re%20d%27influence
