Deep Space Advanced Radar Concept
Abstract
Deep Space Advanced Radar Concept (DARC) will leverage ongoing defense science and technology efforts to mature radar concepts and technologies to develop and evaluate prototypes that demonstrate increased sensitivity, capacity, search rates, and scalability to detect, track and maintain custody of objects in deep space orbit. This effort will analyze and select the most promising technologies to move forward into system development and /or operations. DARC will augment the Space Surveillance Network (SSN) as an additional sensor with increased capacity and capability for deep space object custody at Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO). The DARC effort will coordinate with the JSpOC Mission System (JMS) program to ensure integration with enterprise data fusion and dissemination activities to support space battle management and command and control (BMC2). CY17 DARC was a new start.
