Per the image below, radar now provides a more broader range of capabilities which means where previously passive infrared (PIR) may have been the only viable solution, you now need to understand if the advantages radar brings over PIR could benefit your specific application further. The Raytheon Anschutz SMARTBLUE Radar Series are high-performance surveillance radars, suitable for sophisticated coastal surveillance systems, vessel traffic services and mobile radar installations. The well-proven extremely ruggedized design with a reliable transceiver The SMART-L MM radar system mounted on the test tower at the Thales premises in Hengelo, detected and tracked a ballistic missile at an average range of more than At present, Thales builds the SMART-L Multi Mission radar system for deployement in Naval and Ground-based environments. • Normal radar functions: 1. range (from pulse delay) 2. velocity (from Doppler frequency shift) 3. angular direction (from antenna pointing). • Signature analysis and inverse scattering: 4. target size (from magnitude of return) 5. target shape and components (return as a function of direction) 6 Radar Installation Manual. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. HIGH VOLTAGE WARNING Dangerously high voltages are present within the Radar scanner unit. There are no internal connections or adjustments necessary for installation. Only a qualified Radar service technician should remove the cover. The Thales SMART-L Multi Mission radar in Hengelo detected the target as soon as it appeared over the horizon. The system maintained a stable track for "This milestone proves that Thales is a world leader in radar applications for ballistic missile defence. With SMART-L MM, Thales can provide SMART-L (Signaal Multibeam Acquisition Radar for Tracking, L band) is a long-range search radar for naval ships developed by former Hollandse Signaalapparaten (Signaal), now Thales Naval Nederland. The Thales/BAE Systems Insyte S1850M radar is a derivative of the SMART-L. IEEE Xplore, delivering full text access to the world's highest quality technical literature in engineering and technology. | IEEE Xplore VHF band radars, typically operating between one and three metre wavelengths, were considered passe at the end of the Cold War. Russian VHF radars. It is a fully digital AESA with precision 3D capability, with accuracy rivaling S-band missile battery acquisition radars.
