Israel sets up new department to boost development of AI and autonomy
Israel will continue to develop autonomy for its weapons and platforms as it brings together defence personnel, academia and industry.
Latest Scanter GSR Radar protects the maritime perimeter
The Scanter Ground Surveillance Radar (GSR) system, as the latest addition to Terma's Scanter radar family, brings a new dimension to perimeter surveillance for naval bases, ports, and other critical coastal infrastructures.
Operating in the Ku-band, the system is a short-to-medium range surveillance sensor designed to perform 360 degree search and detection of humans and other small moving targets in clutter-filled environments.
The Scanter GSR functions in two modes simultaneously: as a Doppler radar, it detects movements in the presence of high clutter, while as a high resolution radar, it measures with high precision to discriminate between targets close to one another. Precise angle and distance measurement permits the definition of alarm areas with less than 1 m resolution.
Weighing less than 30 kg, Scanter GSR comprises a high-resolution pulse-Doppler radar sensor, a processing hardware unit, rotating mechanics and an Internet Protocol (IP) connection. All necessary interfaces are via IP links; the system can co-exist on a switched or routed local area network with other units.
Low power (8 W maximum) and high frequency contribute to a low probability of interception. In addition, the radar applies high-resolution frequency-hopping modulation, coherent detection, Doppler speed measurement and improved signal-to-noise ratio by applying digital signal processing.
