Active radar networks for terminal security airport

This paper focuses on the study and analysis of a radar network for the surveillance of the airport terminal area. This work is studied in the framework of the European project SOS, aimed to increase the security of the airport and proposes innovative solutions to guarantee a continuous passenger screening. The active radar networks described in this paper will be designed taking into account different constraints such as modularity, scalability and interoperability. By performing both tracking and data fusion features, the system is able to obtain a complete coverage of the surveillance area and to improve the accuracy respect to a single radar node.
