This article introduces SkyRadar's Monitoring Training System for ATSEP. It trains ATSEP on rapidly locating errors or points of system degradation, on rapidly fixing them and keeping downtimes short.

My colleague Volker recorded this short video of our NextGen Radars "singing" and "dancing" during release testing.

This webinar has a close look at proactive and reactive security in Air Traffic Control. It introduces into main threats, cybersecurity technology, monitoring and response processes, as well as strategies of buildin Cyber-Security Incident Response Teams.

The following video explains in detail the 2 Dimensional CFAR.

In this short video we visualize movements of a person in front of a training radar. We apply range FFT, source suppression, a threshold and a PPI. We also look at the movements in an A-Scope.

This video show several blocks in the digital signal processing chain that allow to enhance the visibility and tracking of moving targets. We show CFAR, Moving Targete Detection with Doppler Filtering, a Heatmap and the I and Q signals.

In 2021, SkyRadar introduced the NextGen Training Radar Suite. It featured the 8 GHz Pulse radar. Now several extensions are available like a pseudo-noise radar (PSR), or the FMCW. This concept turns the NextGen into a platform, allowing to add virtually any radar, sonar or sensor.

The Spectrogram looks at the received power from the targets. It represents the first one-dimensional Fourier transform and is given in a logarithmic scale. The received power spectrum allows to detect moving targets.

The following video visualizes the Doppler frequencies of a person approaching and moving away from the radar source. We apply Fast Fourier Transform.
