A system called RADAR was used to warn of incomming enemy aircraft and then a series of radio stations relayed the warnings to fighter command and then the air fields in the areas would be told and the fighters scrambled to intersept the incoming enemy. Also coastal defenses would warn and ingage with Anti aircraft guns.

British military units had a rudimentary form of radar at the beginning of the Battle of Britain. The equipment was able detect German aircraft crossing the English Channel and put fighters in the air to defend.
