Abstract
This article describes radiolocation devices dedicated to the detection and tracking of small high-speed ballistic objects and multifunctional radars. This functionality is implemented by applying space search technology and adaptive algorithms for detection and tracking of air objects in parallel with classic search and tracking of objects in controlled airspace. This article presents examples of the construction of both types of devices produced by foreign companies and Polish industry. The following sections present methods for testing radars with the function of tracking small high-speed ballistic objects along with examples of results of observations of combat ammunition.
Highlights
We presented the issue of radars capable of detecting and tracking high-speed ballistic objects, as well as issues related to the specifics of research and testing of such devices at the conferenceMetro Aerospace 2019, in Turin
The presented issues were met with great interest from the conference participants and became a source of information for many people about radar devices manufactured by the Polish industry
This article expands the subject of the publication "Radars with the function of detecting and tracking artillery shells—selected methods of field testing", published in Metro AeroSpace 2018 proceedings [1]
Summary
We presented the issue of radars capable of detecting and tracking high-speed ballistic objects, as well as issues related to the specifics of research and testing of such devices at the conference. The key to effective use of artillery is to quickly and precisely determine the coordinates of the position of targets and to verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the conducted firing [2] In this area, modern technology offers the following two most popular solutions: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) equipped with optoelectronic observation sensors and specialized radiolocation devices intended for detecting, tracking, and calculating the trajectory parameters of high-speed ballistic objects [3]. Modern technology offers the following two most popular solutions: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) equipped with optoelectronic observation sensors and specialized radiolocation devices intended for detecting, tracking, and calculating the trajectory parameters of high-speed ballistic objects [3] Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages. From a scientific point of view, it would be desirable to present many technical parameters that characterize individual sensors and compare the effects of different sensors depending on the technical solutions used in them, but this is impossible because the detailed technical parameters and test results of these devices are secret
