Radar and communications are two different applications of radio waves.

For radar, directional antennas are used, and the normal antenna for a ship installation would be a parabolic reflector with a rectangular aperture about 5 times wider than its height. This gives a narrow beam in the horizontal direction, and pulses are sent out and detected after being reflected by the target.
