AI Technical Summary
Conventional radar systems for detecting manned aircraft are complex and expensive, and they struggle to accurately detect and track unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) without active coordination with transponders, leading to inefficiencies and high costs.
A multi-static radar system leveraging existing navigational aid networks, such as DME, uses passive receivers to detect and track aircraft by analyzing reflections of transmitted signals, incorporating digital modeling to improve accuracy and reduce costs.
The system effectively detects and tracks both manned and unmanned aircraft with reduced uncertainty and cost, utilizing existing infrastructure to minimize the need for new transmitter networks and reduce detection likelihood by UAV operators.
