With the growth of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) National Campaign, it is becoming increasingly important for government and enforcement agencies to be able to monitor and safely track urban air traffic that will take place in the coming years. The performance of the Lightweight Surveillance and Target Acquisition Radar (LSTAR) is investigated and statistically characterized. The compact LSTAR is mounted on a building at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) and operated to track a SR-22 aircraft. Performance data of the LSTAR tracking is presented by comparing the LSTAR-tracked flight against the on-board flight records and statistical characteristics are presented. Implications of findings to operations within High Density Vertiplex (HDV) at LaRC are discussed. The LSTAR ultimately proves to be a compact method to safely track and monitor small aircraft and other unmanned aerial vehicles.
