Range resolution as a distance can be calculated as follows: Rres = c * τ /2 Where, τ is the transmitted pulse width and c is the velocity of light in the free space.

What is resolution in radar system?
The minimum separation between two targets that permits them to be distinguished by a radar. The minimum separation in range along a given direction from the radar is one-half the transmitted pulse length. The minimum angular separation at a given range is approximately the 3-dB beamwidth of the radar.
What is the formula for radar?
Standard Form of Radar Range Equation
Therefore, we can say that the range of the target is said to be maximum range when the received echo signal is having the power equal to that of minimum detectable signal. We will get the following equation, by substituting R=RMax and Pr=Smin in Equation 6.
What is radar bearing resolution?
Bearing resolution is the ability of the radar to display as separate pips the echoes received from two targets which are at the same range and close together. It is proportional to the antenna length and reciprocally proportional to the wavelength.
What determines range resolution?
Range resolution is the ability of a radar to resolve between two targets on the same bearing, but at slightly different ranges. The principal factors that affect range resolution are pulse width, receiver gain, and indicator range scale.
