Retrodirective airborne radar for urban surveillance
2008 42nd Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers, 2008Urban surveillance with airborne radar systems is very challenging due to blockage of line-of-sight caused by buildings. To overcome this limitation, it is very likely that the radar will be mounted on a small, inexpensive unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that can fly directly over an urban area of interest. Unfortunately, such systems provide very little

Digital signal processing in airborne radar
Digital Signal Processing, 1992My introduction to the real world of radar digital signal processing occurred in 1959. Our airborne radar design team at General Electric had contracted to design and produce an advanced airborne surveillance radar for the U.S. Navy Hawkeye aircraft (E2A).

Passive radar is one of the most rapidly developing fields in the radar technology in recent years. The ground-based passive radar technology is now entering a stage of maturity. In the past, in a case of active radars, the technology developed for ground-based sensing was adapted for airborne platforms.

Monopulse Aerials for Airborne Radars
4th European Microwave Conference, 1974, 1974The paper begins by summarising the characteristics of a number of mono-pulse aerials applicable to airborne radar. For such a use, it is often important that the aerial has low side lobes. Good sidelobe performance may be obtained with a flat plate array which can have an accurately controlled aperture distribution and is free from feeder blockage and

Airborne Radar as a Navigational Aid
Transactions of the IRE Professional Group on Aeronautical and Navigational Electronics, 1954This paper evaluates airborne radar as a navigational aid by comparing its accuracy with that of three other basic types of navigational systems. Advantages and disadvantages of its present use are discussed, and its probable future role is estimated.

The Searchwater family of airborne radars
Radar Systems (RADAR 97), 1997The three radar members of the new Searchwater 2000 family are the latest in a long line of airborne radars produced in the UK since World War 2. This paper briefly outlines the development history of this family of radars and describes some of the features of the latest systems including signal processing aspects.

Reconfigurable arrays for airborne radars
NTC '91 - National Telesystems Conference Proceedings, 2002The concept of reconfigurable, multiple beam antenna arrays is discussed as a likely step in the development of future airborne radar systems. The system advantages of reconfigurable multiple beams are explored in terms of airborne tactical radars and their application.

Airborne early warning (AEW) radars provide long-range surveillance from an airborne platform. Their primary targets of interest are hostile aircraft. Long-range radar surveillance coverage can be limited by the range to the horizon; however, satisfactory range can be re-established by placing the surveillance radars at high altitude. The line of sight

Airborne fire control radars (FCRs) on fast strike aircraft are the quintessential pulse Doppler radars. They must work in a wide variety of air-to-air and air-to-ground modes, they must be lightweight and compact, yet they have to achieve long detection ranges in the presence of extreme clutter scenes and be capable of tracking a large number of agile

Software development for airborne radar
IEEE International Conference on Radar, 2002Some aspects for development of software in a modern multimode airborne nose radar are described. First, an overview of where software is used in the radar units is presented. The development phases-system design, functional design, detailed design, function verification, and system verification-are then used as the starting point for the discussion ...
