RADAR SYSTEMS

RADAR technology is used in a wide range of defense platforms including aircraft, ships, and land-based military applications, among others. RADAR electronics use electromagnetic waves to detect, locate, and track objects such as aircraft, UAVs, ships, projectiles, etc. in the area of interest. Radars estimate the distance of objects detected from the point where the RADAR is positioned. RADAR Systems and RADAR Subsystems radiate energy into the space, receive and process the reflected signals from targets present with the help of advanced RADAR Signal Processing Engines. 

Advanced RADAR Systems are designed to track targets in difficult radar clutter conditions across land, maritime, and air, for various defense, aerospace, security, intelligence, and safety applications. The recent advancement in the technology domain has resulted in the development of efficient low-cost sensing devices, especially Radar Electronics, which offers superior performance in terms of computation capabilities and precision measurement.
