Tracking Radar Advanced Signal Processing and Computing for Kwajalein Atoll (KA) Application

Abstract

Two means are examined whereby the operations of KMR during mission execution may be improved through the introduction of advanced signal processing techniques. In the first approach, the addition of real time coherent signal processing technology to the FPQ-19 radar is considered. In the second approach, the incorporation of the MMW radar, with its very fine range precision, to the MMS system is considered. The former appears very attractive and a Phase II SBIR has been proposed. The latter does not appear promising enough to warrant further development.
