DARPA Video Synthetic Aperture Radar (ViSAR)
|
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has launched a program to develop a millimeter wave synthetic aperture radar system that can image at a rate of at least 5 frames per second. Such a system would allow essentially real-time surveillance through clouds and dust, from aerial platforms. The initial platform is planned to be the Lockheed Martin AC-130J. Existing synthetic aperture radar systems require too much backend processing to provide real-time video data.
