SkyRadar offers comprehensive Radar Laboratories designed specifically for Radar Officers and Maintenance Personnel. This article presents a straightforward modular configuration to get started.

Thanks to its modular design, military academies can begin with a smaller setup, especially if budget constraints are a concern. The configuration can be expanded incrementally, as detailed in the following sections.

The Basic Hardware

SkyRadar's NextGen 8 GHz Pulse radar offers a comprehensive solution for ATSEP-training, education, and research. With a range resolution of 11 cm, a range up to 25 m, and a pulse width of 0.5 ns, it ensures precise detection. Operating with the SkyRadar FreeScopes Software, it provides scopes (A-Scope/B-Scope/PPI), interfaces, and filters, enabling tailored learning. Its modular design allows for gradual expansion with downloadable modules. Compatible with various radar types, it meets the needs of military academies. 

The Important Algorithms and Scopes

In several packages (FreeScopes Basic I, Basic II, ATC I, ATC II) SkyRadar provides all the important algorithms which are needed to detect and follow static and mobile targets.

Due to the service-oriented architecture of the SkyRadar equipment many students can learn concurrently and individually on their specific experiments with live data, recorded data or simulated data. 

Logic for More Complex Applications

Working on and servicing military equipment needs an understanding of the material, and being able to service it in the shortest time. With the Solutions for FreeScopes Basic III and IV, the learner can work on pre-assemble equipment circuits, understand, apply and debug them. 

Active Targets and Deception Jammers

SkyRadar provides various jammers and deception jammers to create live-attacks which can be responded to with electronic counter-countermeasures (see sections below).

Electronic Counter-Countermeasures Based on Prediction

The Electronic Counter-Countermeasures (ECCM) Package #1 is equipped with a suite of advanced, prediction-based features designed to enhance radar performance and reliability in challenging environments. It includes enhanced algorithms build on Range-Gate-Pull-Off-Detection, MTI, Clutter-Map, MTD or Kalman.

Electronic Counter-Countermeasures Based On Statistical and Adaptive Signal Processing

The Electronic Counter-Countermeasures (ECCM) Package #2 works with statistical and adaptive methods to detect and neutralize electronic attacks. Examples are the Savitzky-Golan Filter or Median Filters.

Artificial Intelligence in Defense

Artificial Intelligence is swiftly becoming integral to the defense sector. From enhancing pattern recognition in surveillance to providing decision support and analyzing complex scenarios, AI has become a critical component in modern defense strategies.

However, the adoption of AI remains challenging for many users and decision-makers within the armed forces, who often view it as a complex and uncertain technology. To address this, SkyRadar has developed an advanced infrastructure that extends the capabilities of radar systems and the FreeScopes Suite. This infrastructure enables the generation, processing, and enhancement of data, facilitating the development, optimization, and deployment of AI models. The infographic below illustrates an example of how AI can be leveraged to detect targets and counter deception jamming.

Many Applications for Electronic Warfare

Follow our blogs and videos on Electronic Warfare with SkyRadar's Disturbance Filtering & Analysis solutions, artificial intelligence or the jammers and the Pulse Radar! SkyRadar is the only provider world-wide, providing manufacturer-agnostic ECM and ECCM training with simulators and real radars and jammers. Learn more about the simulator, range deception, angle deception, speed deception, radar lock on and major state of the art defense algorithms against malicious attacks.

Such defense is not only useful in a military context but also in a civil aviation setting. Increasingly speed radar jammers by trucks and cars disturb airport infrastructure. Also hybrid warfare is used to perturb critical infrastructure like airports and civil air surveillance and navigation services.
