STK/Radar

STK/Radar STK/Radar STK/Radar provides thorough analysis and graphic displays of radar systems. It adds a new class of objects—the radar class—which can be attached to any of STK's vehicle classes (satellites, missiles, launch vehicles, aircraft, ships, and ground vehicles) as well as the facility/target and sensor classes. The module also allows the user to model an important characteristic of radar targets—radar cross section (RCS)—to calculate and display access and to generate reports and graphs of radar system performance.

STK/Radar simulates both monostatic and bistatic radar systems and supports operations in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and/or Search/Track modes. Targets may be assigned multiple frequency-dependent radar cross sections to coincide with the various bands in operation in the scenario. Users have the flexibility to choose from several different antenna types or utilize the "External" option to import their own antenna patterns into STK. The surveillance tool allows the performance of a system to be evaluated and ranked by either target or radar. The Radar Advanced Environment extension for STK/Radar models ground clutter contributions to radar analysis.

STK/Radar together with the STK Professional Edition provides a unique systems engineering capability for dramatically decreasing the time to perform detailed radar analysis. STK’s quick setup and iteration enables a reduction of trade space in complex multi-parameter parametric analysis. Users can create any radar reference axes with the STK Vector Geometry Tool, visualize relative vectors and axes in 3D, and report on target positions in multiple user-defined reference frames.

The TIREM and RAE extension modules are also available for use with STK/Radar for an even higher level of analytical fidelity.

  • Key Features

  • STK/Radar

    Diverse radar-system modeling

    STK/Radar provides Search/Track and SAR modes. You can set up bistatic or monostatic systems and specify numerous system characteristics and gain/loss factors, with automatic recalculation of related parameters. For example, STK/Radar allows the modeling of space-based radar systems that act as bistatic transmitters to a network of ground-based bistatic receivers. System level requirements, such as transmitter power and antenna size, may then be varied in order to satisfy minimum tracking requirements. Applications for radar-system analysis include surveillance mission planning, air defense operations, Earth resources, and radar-system design analysis.

    Versatile treatment of RCS

    Allows you to specify multiple frequency dependent RCS for each object or a global value at the scenario level for all objects, e.g., when evaluating a radar system with reference to certain minimum performance criteria.

    Missile/air defense radar placement

    The effectiveness of a missile defense network can be exercised against incoming threats of varying RCS. The system may be constrained to any user-specified probability of detection. The surveillance tool allows the evaluation of multiple asset/target performance as a function of time.

    Space-based radar-imaging planning

    By using the SAR mode of operation and associated SAR constraints, users are able to determine imaging opportunities that satisfy their viewing requirements.
