Multiband 4D Radar
Funds a demonstrator for a multiband 4D radar that tracks range, direction and speed together for naval and future ground/air defence.
This Development Action asks for a technology-integration demonstrator rather than a finished product: a multiband 4D radar meant to track range, direction, speed and elevation together, built first for naval self- and area-defence with an eye toward later ground and air surveillance use. The scope groups the work into four areas -- intelligent management of a congested electromagnetic spectrum, b…
This topic wants a technology-integration demonstrator for a multiband 4D radar — one that combines 3D radar tracking with time/velocity for more accurate targets — built first for naval self- and area-defence, with an eye to later ground and air surveillance use. It covers intelligent spectrum management, multi-band operation and integration with weapon datalinks and combat-management systems.
