The document discusses the use of a new type of radar system called over-the-horizon radar that can detect targets at much longer distances than traditional radar systems by bouncing signals off the ionosphere. It works by transmitting radio waves upwards that then bounce off ionized layers in the upper atmosphere, allowing the signals to follow the curve of the Earth and detect objects hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away. However, the signals can be unreliable and impacted by weather conditions in the ionosphere.
