MINIATURIZED DIGITAL RADAR SYSTEM

Aspects of this disclosure relate to a miniaturized digital radar system and method that can be fabricated on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and/or a chip, such as on a System-On-a-Chip (SOC). The digital radar system can operate at the S-band (e.g. in the range of 3 GHz). Advantageously, the S-band frequency range is less susceptible and/or not susceptible to clutter from precipitation and is well suited for long range surveillance applications. The small form factor of the miniaturized digital radar system on the PCB and/or the SOC can be implemented on small and/or low-observable platforms, such as on fixed or rotary wing unmanned aerial vehicles.
