About Us

White Horse Radar Limited

White Horse Radar Limited was founded by Dr Clive Alabaster and Dr Evan Hughes in 2013 to provide teaching and consultancy for Radar and other sensor technologies.

Drs Alabaster and Hughes have over 45 years of engineering experience between them ranging from Radar systems design and analysis, Microwave Engineering, Antenna design, Radar waveform design, Radar electronic warfare, Dielectric materials measurements, Digital and analogue hardware design and signal processing, Data fusion, Optimisation of complex systems, Software development for detailed modelling and simulation and also Software and hardware for real-time data processing.    They have 18 journal papers and over 45 peer reviewed conference papers and Dr Alabaster has recently published a key book on Pulse Doppler Radar.

Drs Alabaster and Hughes also have over 35 years of teaching experience between them; the majority taught at Masters degree level and above in a wide range of subjects including Radar systems design, Microwave test and measurement, Radar electronic Warfare, Signal processing and statistics, Soft computing and Optimisation and Data fusion.

White Horse Radar Limited can provide bespoke short courses ranging from one day, to multiple weeks on the wide range of topics we are experienced in.  We regularly travel worldwide to deliver the courses at customers’ premises and can also provide courses here in the UK in the Swindon area.

We are also available to provide consultancy services ranging from as little as a day, through to longer ad-hoc support contracts if needed.   We can also conduct research programmes on behalf of customers and have significant experience over many years in doing so, which has led in-part to our significant portfolio of publications.
