In this article, we’ve discussed the use of radar in maritime surveillance, whether from the shore, from a ship or even from an aircraft. The main features of this type of radar were detailed.

The main technical design choices, such as operating frequency, were put into perspective in relation to installation constraints, operational requirements and the physical properties of the atmosphere.

The particular properties of sea clutter were presented, as well as the resulting advanced detection techniques for maritime targets: The aim of these techniques is to detect and track fixed, slow- or fast-moving sea targets with low RCS and in the highest possible sea states.

  • Maritime surveillance radar is no exception to the major technical trends prevailing in the field of radar in general, i.e.:...
