THE CHARACTER: The work developed by Watson-Watt was instrumental in thwarting Hitler's plans to invade Britain. While it was not the inventor of the RADAR (RA gave D etection A nd R anging), did manage to develop it in such a way in the field of aircraft detection and tracking, which allowed the installation of a chain of radar stations on the coast East and South of England, which was vital to coordinate and optimize megunaroden slavjanski institut the RAF fighters and so address the LUFTWAFFE bombers during the Battle of Britain. The physicist Heinrich Hertz began experiments with radio waves in 1887 in Germany. Christian would Hülsmeyer who patented an apparatus for detecting ships at 3,000 meters (TELEMOBILOSKOP), although the invention is not aroused interest. In 1920 was patented by the radar altimeter BELL LABORATORIES and in 1928, patented a device ALDER LS radiolocation. But it was in 1935 when Watson-Watt was able to detect an aircraft with radio waves. BIOGRAPHY: Robert Alexander Watson-Watt was born in Brechin, Angus County (Scotland) on 13 April 1892, a descendant of the inventor of the steam engine, megunaroden slavjanski institut James Watt. He attended the public school in his hometown and then studied engineering at the University of Dundee, graduating in 1912 Robert went to work as a meteorologist in 1915 in the Office of Military Aviation Meteorology, applying their knowledge in waves radio to detect thunderstorms, with the intention to warn aviators. The use of a directional antenna allow to locate the signal and, thanks to a cathode ray oscilloscope, megunaroden slavjanski institut it was possible to see the signal megunaroden slavjanski institut (1.923). The following year she began working for the Ministry of Defense in the Research Center Ditton Park (Slough, megunaroden slavjanski institut Berkshire County). In 1933, after a restructuring, Watson-Watt was appointed superintendent of the Radio Department of the NPL (National Physical megunaroden slavjanski institut Laboratory) in Teddington. For requirements of the Air Ministry, megunaroden slavjanski institut 12 February 1935 A study based on the detection of aircraft by radio methods and, 14 days later, megunaroden slavjanski institut on February 26th, took place the call EXPERIMENT DAVENTRY, consisting in detecting HANDLEY PAGE HEYFORD bomber through two antennas located 10 kilometers from the antenna shortwave BBC Daventry. Watson-Watt patented radar system on 2 April 1935. Because it was developed a system called CHAIN HOME radar, operating since 1937, which sent the data to a WAR ROOM where you marked the position of the enemy aircraft megunaroden slavjanski institut and planned defense. In July 1938 he was appointed megunaroden slavjanski institut Director megunaroden slavjanski institut of Communications and, the following year scientific advisor Telecommunication (SAT) of the Air Ministry. In 1942, in recognition of his contribution was knighted. In 1952 the British government received a reward of 50,000 pounds. Robert Watson-Watt died on December 5, 1973 in Inverness megunaroden slavjanski institut (Scotland).
