Abstract:

A passive or passive coherent location (PCL) radar does not have an own transmitter or require owning spectrum, making it a very cost effective instrument for tracking noncooperative targets. The paper discusses achievements in FM-based passive radar developments in South Africa, including a brief summary of experimental results. The paper then introduces a project to characterise and quantify the passive radar's performance in a six radar nodes testbed being around the major South African airport near Johannesburg and intended to prove the technology and enable addressing the needs of air traffic control (ATC) in developing countries.
