Supporting technologies

COMMUNICATIONS / ENERGY / HUMAN-MACHINE INTERACTION

Autonomy depends on more than the vehicle. We investigate communications, power management, and the tools that connect people with machines.

Research focus

Our broader interests include communications, energy systems, and human-machine interaction.

EL / 07Prototype phase

Counter-UAS radar

RADAR / DETECTION / AIRSPACE AWARENESS

Prototype research into radar-based detection and tracking of small uncrewed aircraft, with an emphasis on useful early awareness.

Research focus

A 45 km nominal radar range provides the context; useful detection distances depend on radar cross section and conditions. Explore indicative estimates and the challenges behind them.
