Abstract - A rangefinder is a device that measures the
distance from the target to the observer, for the purposes of
surveying, determining focus in photography, or accurately
aiming a weapon. In this technical project, we make a simple
radar using the ultrasonic sensor, this radar works by
measuring a range from 3cm to 40 cm as non-contact distance
.The movement of the object is controlled by using a small
servo motor. Information received from the sensor will be used
by software to illustrate the result on a PC screen. If sensor is
detected within specified range buzzer will be sound and will
be displayed in the LCD.

I. INTRODUCTION
RADAR systems is used in the field of detection and monitoring.
Some of these are in the fields of navigation and positioning
other applications. In this research, existing radar technologies
are examined by Arduino. The advantage of this system is used
to reduce power consumption and allow the designers to have
access to a wide range of online communities of Arduino
programmers and open source reusable code. The system
consists of an ultra-sonic sensor, an Arduino micro-controller, a
servo motor and a java application for mapping the electro-
magnetic waves. A prototype system is built by connecting the
ultra-sonic sensors to the Arduino microcontroller’s digital
input/output pins and the servo motor also connected to the
digital input/output pins. Both the ultra - sonic sensor and the
servo motor are then clipped together so that as the servo
motor sweeps from right to left through an angle of 1800 the
servo will rotate alongside it.
RADAR is used in surveillance of 24/7. The basic needs of these
are security. RADAR can be used to detect aircraft, spacecraft,
missiles, vehicles, weather formation and so on. It consists of
Trans-receiver and Processor. RADAR can be of many types.
Ultrasonic senor is an object detecting system which is used to
monitor an area of short range. Ultrasonic Sensor mounted on
a Servo Motor. The RADAR is programmed using embedded C,
and the result is observed on MATLAB platform.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
In this proposed system GSM technology is implemented for
transmitting the information to the supplier. The system is
designed in such a way to prevent the electricity thefts
happening in the current scenario. This system is being
interfaced with Arduino and sensors which are used to find the
problem, if any problem is detected then the message will be
sent to the user via GSM. This will prevent the unknown entries.
The proposed system gives solution for the existing problems
like power theft, wastage of energy and transmission line fault
that are faced by the authorized power suppliers.
III.HARDWARE SETUP
The hardware setup plays a vital role in the designing process
of this system. The following are the building blocks of the
system. They are:
 ARUDINO Microcontroller.
 Motor driver.
 GSM.
 Ultrasonic sensor.
 Power supply.
The digital output capabilities for moving the servo on which
the ultrasonic sensor is mounted and for generating
informative tones from a buzzer using Pulse Width Modulation
(PWM). This buzzer would also require a single digital pin for
communications over a soft serial port. All of the sensors that I
am looking into purchasing run at 5v and are compatible with
the Arduino’s and internal step-up resistance. This will make
assembly of the apparatus straightforward. For the sensor
circuitry, I intend to purchase IR sensors manufactured by
Solarbotics and an ultrasonic sensor manufactured by
Devantech. In my research, I’ve learned that some servo motors
have non-mechanical issues with being commanded to a full
180-degree rotation, the ultrasonic sensors can be mounted
which minimize weight and maximize range of motion. For the
SONAR sensor i will need a routine that will coordinate
movements of the motor with readings from the sensor.
Another routine will check the digital ultrasonic sensors and
output if an object is detected, and on which sensor. Yet
another routine will serve as a sensor manager and call a

routine to generate audible alerts, based on what sensors have
been activated. The goal is to generate unique alerts for each of
the digital sensors. I would like to use a Voice Box shield
leveraging a SpeakJet chip, although a piezo buzzer would also
be sufficient. The sensor manager must be designed in such a
way that it could easily be merged into a robot’s code in order
to affect actual movement. An example of how the sensor
manager could be applied to a fight control system would be to
replace the unique output tones with directional flight
commands, and the beacon controls with speed reduction
commands.

in creating interactive objects or environments.
GSM
GSM is Global System for Mobile Communication. GSM uses
digital wireless techniques like TDMA and CDMA. GSM has an
inbuilt dual band GSM engine-SIM 800A. GSM can carry about
64 kbps to 120 Mbps of data rates. GSM also provides advanced
voice and data services. It has both transmitting and receiving
pins which are used to send and receive messages.
ULTRASONIC SENSOR:
The ultrasonic sensor is simple and use high-frequency sound
waves that are evaluated when the sensor received back the
waves. Ultrasonic sensor determine the distance between the
robot and object, the sensor measure the elapsed time between
sending and receiving the waves. Ultrasonic sensors are ideal
for measurement in different environments where
measurements cannot be affected by the surface, material,
light, dust, or other noises.

Ultrasonic senor is one of the most popular ultrasonic sensors
used in robotics by students and hobbyists to determine the
distance from a robot to objects. Ultrasonic senor is available
at a low-price, it is stable and has high accuracy. Ultrasonic
senor working principle is similar to bats or dolphins, and its

provides measurement function between 2 and 400
centimeters at a range accuracy of 3 millimeters. The
Ultrasonic senor module hosts the ultrasonic transmitter, the
receiver and control circuit.

VI.CONCLUSION
The project presents design, prototyping, and tests of a low-
cost mini radar system, with specific interest on the
synchronization of radar and navigation data. The project
presented system has been conceived for radar applications on
board unmanned aerial platforms. Hence, the prototype needs
to be agile, flexible, and reliable, able to operate in different
modes, according to the requirements of the application. The
employment of the radar on board of RPAs involves severe
limitations in terms of weight, consumption, and overall
dimensions. The required radar capabilities and the moving
nature of the sensor imply a fine synchronization between
radar and navigation data
