1. Introduction to Radome Engineering A radome (radar dome) is a structural, weatherproof enclosure that protects an antenna or radar system from its environment while introducing the minimum possible degradation to the electromagnetic (EM) signal. The radome is a critical subsystem: its failure compromises not only the antenna but the entire mission—be it airborne, ground-based, shipborne, or spaceborne. radome engineering handbook
