For NATO's military and pace-keeping operations, radar and SAR systems for airborne and space-based surveillance, reconaissance, and target acquisition (RSTA) are essential tools for a large number of missions. Its ability to function during day and night, relative immunity to weather, capability of localizing targets in range, long range operation, generating highly accurate interferometric 3D-maps, detection and tracking of mobile targets, and classification of objects, make it the sensor of choice in many situations. New emerging concepts employ high-resolution multi-channel imaging radars, for instance, and/or multiple radar/SAR sensors distributed over the area of interest in a Network-centric environment to enhance the information quality gained by a |
| single sensor. They offer multiple benefits, for instance boosting the potentialities to characterize the target by exploiting the multiple observation angles or using already available signals of opportunity. | |
Topics to be covered:
- Sophisticated active and passive radar sensors
- Multistatic and MIMO radar systems
- High resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
- Multichannel SAR/MTI
- Multipass/multiview SAR and Interferometric SAR
- SAR Tomography
- Sensor data fusion
- Tracking and sensor management
- Context-assisted tracking and sensor data fusion
- Space-based moving target tracking
