Author_Institution :
Admiralty Res. Estab, Portsdown, UK
Abstract :
MESAR (Multifunction Electronically Scanned Adaptive Radar) is an experimental phased array radar which exploits recent advances in technology to reduce cost and realize the potential of phased array radar to a far greater extent than has so far been achieved. It employs a solid state active array and has a digital beamformer together with programmable waveform generation and signal processing. MESAR is a collaborative and jointly funded venture between Plessey Radar and the Admiralty Research Establishment and has been in development since 1982
