These agencies including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration s (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have many and varied requirements and possible applications of modern radar technology. This book analyzes what is lacking in the current system, the relevant capabilities of phased array technology, technical challenges, cost issues, and compares possible alternatives. Both specific and overarching recommendations are outlined.Phased array antennasEvaluationRadarAntennasRadarAutomatic detectionPhased array antennasEvaluation.RadarAntennas.RadarAutomatic detection.621.3824National Academies (U.S.)National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate.National Research Council (U.S.).Division on Earth and Life Studies.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910956924803321Evaluation of the multifunction phased array radar planning process4358456UNINA
