How does a Radar-Warning-System (RWR) identify whether a bandit has successfully gained a radar lock?

I understand how you’d detect lasing but not radar lock, especially at the distances and intensities involved (like I’m familiar with how an NMR machine works but I cannot correlate it with RWR).

MAWS also make sense – you’re scanning with radar or laser or IR and use doppler effects to notice something is moving towards you.

A RWR is a person in a dark area, seeing a crowd of people searching for him with flashlights with various luminosity and distance. A RWR can see that a lock is detected by seeing one of those lights become a lot brighter and flickering rapidly in their direction.
