5. Distributed Radar Networks
Using many synchronized radar devices to build a complete detection grid, distributed radar networks offer a breakthrough method of airborne surveillance. Combining data from several radar stations running in concert allows this technology to deliver outstanding coverage and target tracking. These systems' distributed character makes them quite resistant to jamming and offers redundancy should individual unit failure occur. While powerful fusion algorithms mix information from several sources to produce a unified operating picture, advanced networking protocols guarantee safe and efficient data transfer between systems. The capacity of the system to run over several frequency ranges and modes offers improved detection power and resilience to electronic countermeasures.
