Call for Exhibits: Topics

The advent of digital technology has enabled the use of new approaches to radar that were just analytical curiosities a few years ago. Examples include space-time adaptive processing, superresolution algorithms, improved SAR algorithms, and multiple hypothesis tracking. Other enablers include the development of low-cost T/R modules and phase shifters, improved low-noise amplifiers, and SiC transmitter modules. Of course, there are many more examples. At the same time, we are faced with new and significantly more difficult requirements. Current and future systems require much greater sensitivity, straining the limits on transmitter power, receive aperture size, component capabilities, and subclutter visibility. Also needed are better resolution and metric accuracy, improved detection and target ID methods, and lower cost, smaller size RF components and processors. The challenge is to achieve breakthroughs in radar capability using these new technologies and at the same time identify needed technologies for the future. The IEEE Radar Conference brings it all together, and, in conjunction with the International Radar Conference, has grown to be the most important conference on radar in the world--bringing together the innovators, leaders, and users from the diverse civil, space, and military communities to share ideas, discuss issues, and invigorate advances in this field.
