AESA + pulse-Doppler radar for civil airspace monitoring

RADA-SS is a civilian X-band radar system with an active electronically scanned array (AESA) designed for airspace monitoring. The system is intended for surveillance of the air environment around airports, industrial facilities, ports, energy and transport infrastructure, as well as for enhancing flight safety and situational awareness.

Its fully solid-state architecture and advanced digital radar signal processing algorithms ensure reliable detection of various types of aerial objects in adverse weather conditions and in the presence of natural and industrial interference.

Key features

• Active electronically scanned array (AESA) with 256 transmit/receive modules.
• Mode 1: mechanical 360-degree azimuth scanning with electronic elevation scanning.
• Mode 2: two-dimensional electronic scanning without mechanical rotation; mode switching is software-controlled.
• 360-degree panoramic surveillance or sector surveillance up to 90 degrees for local airspace monitoring.
• A high-performance computing platform and adaptive signal-processing algorithms provide interference and clutter suppression and reduce false alarms.
• Automatic detection and categorization of aerial and ground objects based on measured parameters.
• Supports mechanical and electronic scanning.
• Built-in GPS receiver and inclinometer for determining the system's spatial orientation.
