Practical multi-receiver passive radar with low-cost synchronisation (2024–2027)

Abstract:
This project aims to address the current challenges of developing practical multi-receiver passive radar systems, through the development of advanced receiver synchronisation techniques, which do not require the deployment of costly infrastructure. The project will develop novel algorithms and techniques that enable synchronous combining of data from multiple radars, allowing for the detection of smaller targets and significantly extending the radar coverage zone. The expected outcomes of this project include improved performance of passive radar systems and the advancement of radar technology. The benefits of this project include new applications in areas such as traffic monitoring, drone detection and national security.
