Summary: | Everyone knows the importance of defending our country and one of the key aspects of country defence is the military technology. There are also different types of defence technologies and some of the most commonly talked-about military technology includes the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) which is the topic of this project.
From the definition of the term UAV, an UAV is a drone in an aircraft controlled through computers, and without any human pilots, the aircraft is able to carry payloads, sensors or even the SAR for our project. There are many advantages by using the UAV for military, some which included completing military missions which cannot be completed by humans in the past and saving on the manpower.
The term of SAR is defined as a type of radar used to detect objects through Doppler Effect. In other words, the SAR is able to detect moving objects by sending repeated pulse signals and receiving the reflected signals back. The SAR can also be installed in moving platforms or in our case, the UAV to detect those objects. |
