Product catalog summary
Overview
The PicoSAR is a compact, lightweight airborne ground surveillance radar utilizing Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) technology. It is designed for Unmanned Aerial Systems, fixed-wing, and helicopter platforms, offering all-weather capabilities.

Key Features
  • Utilizes AESA technology in a compact form.
  • Employs low power, solid-state Transmit/Receive Modules (TRM) for enhanced reliability.
  • Can be mounted directly or on a gimbal for increased field-of-view.
  • Consists of a single Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) that can be reconfigured for installation flexibility.
  • Antenna can be resized to meet specific platform or performance requirements.

Key Benefits
  • High-resolution ground mapping and wide area coverage.
  • High-performance Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI).
  • Low cost of ownership and high reliability.
  • Lightweight, compact, and easy to install and use.

Technical Specifications
  • Frequency: X band
  • Scan Coverage: ±45º
  • Maximum Range: 20km (resolution dependent)
  • Map Resolution: <1m
  • Cooling: Unconditioned Air
  • Weight: 10kgs
  • Input Power: <300W 28V DC
  • Dimensions: Antenna - Height: 220 mm, Width: 310 mm, Depth: 85 mm; Processor - Height: 200 mm, Width: 200 mm, Depth: 125 mm
  • Electrical Interface: GPS antenna feed, 28V DC power, and Ethernet

Capabilities
  • Ground Mapping: Strip SAR, Spotlight SAR
  • Moving Target Detection: GMTI

Background
Leonardo MW Ltd has been a leader in airborne radar technology since the 1950s. The company has developed AESA technology since the early 1990s, offering a range of products including the Vixen and Seaspray radar families.

Reliability
The PicoSAR radar ensures high operational availability by using multiple solid-state TRMs, allowing for graceful performance degradation in case of component failures.

PICOSAR-1

Radar & Advanced Targeting The PicoSAR Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar provides an unrivalled all-weather capability for Unmanned Aerial Systems, fixed wing and helicopter platforms. Building on over 50 years of experience in the airborne radar field, PicoSAR combines our knowledge with the latest technology to meet the evolving requirements of the 21st century. KEY FEATURES The key to PicoSAR is the use of AESA technology in a small, compact configuration. Using many low power, solid state Transmit/Receive Modules (TRM) within its array, the PicoSAR radar is more reliable than conventional radar systems. For the most compact installations PicoSAR can be mounted directly onto the platform and the beam steered electronically, or it can be mounted on a gimbal for an even greater field-of-view. PicoSAR consists of a single small Line Replaceable Unit (LRU). This LRU can be reconfigured if required to ease installation, by detaching the antenna unit from the processor unit. In addition, due to the flexibility of AESA technology the radar antenna can be resized to address specific platform constraints or customer performance requirements. KEY BENEFITS ■ Excellent performance - High resolution ground mapping - Wide area coverage - High performance GMTI ■ Low cost of ownership ■ Reconfigurable radar system ■ Lightweight ■ Compact ■ Very high reliability ■ Easy to install and use.
