Retinar FAR-AD is a specialized radar system specifically designed to detect small drones at long ranges and overcome the limitations of visual-based solutions. Operating on the Ku-band with low RF power output, it utilizes a customized pulse-compression Doppler waveform to provide effective Low-Slow-Small (LSS) moving target detection, tracking and classification even at low altitudes and in poor visibility.
Automatically scanning large areas and low-altitude air space with an elevation angle of 40 degrees, Retinar FAR-AD has been designed with a digital radar architecture that offers a variety of waveforms and selectable angular rotation speeds. It can communicate with control software installed on a laptop or computer via a 10/100Mbps Ethernet data interface.
