Dual-polarization X-band phased array weather radar: Technology update

摘要

A Raytheon-developed dual polarization X-band active phased array radar has been designed and is being tested for use as a multi-mission, weather and surveillance, radar. The radar is optimized for integration into existing networks with the capability of being deployed on existing telecom, turbine or building infrastructures. The partnership between Raytheon and CASA brings together years of expertise to meet future requirements of en route and terminal air surveillance and weather remote sensing. This paper provides an update to this Raytheon dual polarization active phased array radar technology.
