SKYSURV Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR) is the latest generation for terminal approach control applications. Our engineers have applied their civil and military expertise to create radars that comply with ICAO and Eurocontrol international aviation standards. In addition to meeting ISO 9001: 2008 Quality Management System requirements, the robustly designed and modular PSR provides low lifecycle costs while retaining solid-state capability. With Intelcan’s PSR, you can expect enhanced system stability and superior clutter suppression to minimize false reports while maintaining excellent target detection up to a range of 90NM (with the high powered option). The system also enables superior target accuracy and resolution. The PSR’s configuration includes a channel for weather processing in the airspace and standby channels with automatic switchover controlled by a system-level watchdog circuit. The data output format uses standardized ASTERIX data; however, other data formats can be implemented as an option. The PSR’s functionality can be extended beyond the terminal approach by adding Intelcan’s Monopulse Surveillance Secondary Radar (MSSR). Best of all, a sophisticated remote control and monitoring system allows for unattended operation. Antenna System The Antenna System forms a double coverage ‘Cosec’ illumination pattern. It operates with linear or circular polarization and can be adjusted remotely to improve weather clutter rejection quickly. The Transmitter is modular, air-cooled and solid-state. It is composed of 16 independent modules and operates in the full frequency range with frequency diversity for short-pulse and long-pulse transmission. The design is fault-tolerant with a low voltage power supply that allows for continuous operation during maintenance. Configuration of the Antenna system can provide the following benefits: Sharp cut-off in the lower part of the elevation pattern A small angular difference between the high and low beam with a possibility of site by site optimizing The RF Generator is a digital waveform synthesizer. It provides the optimum number of short and long pulses over the coverage period. Enhanced coverage in high elevations Low azimuth side lobes Remote selection of polarization (linear/circular) The Receiver is a super-heterodyne type with double frequency down conversion. Its dynamic range is achieved through direct IF A/D conversion by 14 bit A/D converters. The Receiver has full digital automatic gain control to improve receiver stability and gain calibration. The BITE receiver measures on-line receiver performance parameters, including the nois
