Daredevil (Marvel) probably has both radar sense and echolocation but has to depend on background noise unlike the Man-Bat.  Radar sense probably involves emitting some sort of electromagnetic pulse from the brain.  Ambient sound can confuse echolocation.  Ambient sound would not affect radar sense.  In the movies, Daredevil is more confused by background sound.  In the comic books, Daredevil is not as confused by background sound but loud sound can hurt him since his hearing is super sensitive.  In one of the earliest explanations radar sense is mentioned and superhuman hearing but not echolocation (Annual Daredevil V1 #1).
