Over the years airborne radars have proven their value as wide-area, nearly all-weather surveillance tools. Typically, airborne radars are large systems mounted in manned aircraft. Lincoln Laboratory, however, has built a very capable radar system that is compact and lightweight; the radar has been integrated into an unmanned air vehicle (UAV). A significant component of the radar is a Lincoln Laboratory-designed programmable processor that performs moving-target detection on board the UAV. The onboard processing permits the use of a UAV data link that transmits kilobits per second of moving-target reports instead of tens of megabits per second of raw radar data. The system - the airborne portion of which weighs only 110 lb - detects and tracks moving vehicles such as tanks, trucks, and low-flying helicopters out to a range of 15 km, and classifies them at shorter ranges.
