SERDAR
coastal surveillance radar
ASELSAN’s Coastal Surveillance Radar, SERDAR, has been
designed and developed indigenously by ASELSAN. The radar is capable
of automatic detection and tracking of above-water naval targets and
low-flying airborne targets under all weather conditions, day and night.
SERDAR can detect and track targets up to 36 NM range and can simultaneously
track up to 250 targets. The Frequency Modulated Constant Waveform (FMCW)
transmission technique employed by SERDAR allows for its superior performance
and enables substantially reduced output power. Consequently, SERDAR
is a Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) radar, which is extremely difficult
to be detected by electronic warfare systems. LPI is a vital characteristic
for coastal surveillance radars as it enables detection of approaching
targets without being detected.

SERDAR boasts
superior figures in close-range performance, range and azimuth resolution
compared to its counterparts in the global market. SERDAR Radar employs
invcosec2 antenna pattern and its beam shape can be adjusted according
to the height of the radar location. This provides great advantage
for the coverage of the shoreline, allowing detection of targets located
very close to the shoreline even if the radar antenna is located at
high altitudes nearby the shore.
Some of SERDAR’s main features are given below:
-
Automatic target tracking capability up to 250 targets
-
High range resolution
-
Low failure rate
-
Modular design
-
Low antenna side lobe levels
-
Superior close range performance
-
Sector blanking
-
Alarm sectors
-
Built-in test capability (BITE)
-
High
durability against harsh environmental conditions
