Dismount Detection RADAR

Abstract

The Dismount Detection Radar (DDR) project designs, develops, integrates, tests, fields, and sustains Ground Moving Target Indicator / Dismount Moving Target Indicator (GMTI/DMTI) and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) capability for improved dismount and moving target detection, identification, tracking, and classification. DDR is advancing the Open Systems Architecture (OSA) in the area of sensors and mission systems. DDR includes associated Tasking Processing Exploitation and Dissemination (TPED) capabilities, and will be applicable to other combatant command (COCOM) GMTI requirements. DDR helps to fulfill the sponsoring COCOM and Central Command (CENTCOM) dismount detection requirements. DDR will be employed on medium altitude air vehicles, such as the MQ-9 Reaper. The DDR program also studies, develops, tests, and implements new concepts, hardware and software capabilities that can be leveraged by the OSA design in the radar and associated TPED for GMTI, and various technical analysis/studies to support future advanced radar development. Activities also include studies, analysis, and technology development, maturation, and demonstration to support current and future program planning and execution. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production fielding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
