ATRAD MF Radar - MF-SRS
40kW 4 receiver MF system
The ATRAD 3rd Generation MF Scaleable Radar System (MF-SRS) has been specifically designed for profiling at heights between 50 and 110 kilometers (actual height coverage will depend on location), and addresses the widest possible range of research applications providing high performance, flexible and cost-effective solutions.
The ATRAD MF-SRS radar has many applications, which include
- Wind Profiling
- Meteor Tracking and Recording
- Ionospheric Research
The flexibility of the MF-SRS architecture allows a wide range of systems to be built from a suite of standard modules. Radar power outputs from 8kW-256kW (peak), Antenna array sizes from 4-128 antennas and up to four complex receiver channels are supported within the standard architecture. A number of standard configurations are available to suit common applications or the configuration may be readily customised to suit customer-specific requirements.
ATRAD can customise your system to meet your requirements and provide total life of system support.
