A monostatic pulsed radar operating at 30 GHz has a transmitter with 2 KW O/P power and an antenna with 30 dB gain. Minimum detectable signal in the receiver is -100 dBm. Determine the maximum range of the radar, if it is required to detect a target having radar cross section of 10 sq.m (consider log104π = 1.1).
Assume EM wave propagate under ideal conditions.
