Ground Security Radar

The HARRIER ASR system provides low-cost airspace surveillance and monitoring for small commercial airports, civil aviation airfields, industrial plants and government facilities with effective detection ranges out to 30 miles
Logo DeTect Harrier airspace, marine and ground surveillance radarDeTect’s radar processing technology developed specifically for detection and tracking of small, low radar-cross section, non-linearly moving targets make it one of the most sensitive, low cost radar systems on the market today for locating and monitoring a wide range of targets including aircraft, ships, boats, vehicles and pedestrians. The HARRIER security and surveillance radar provides full surveillance coverage ground level to altitudes up to 20,000 feet and allows the system to function as a multi-purpose sensor for simultaneous detection, alerting and tracking of aircraft, ships, boats, swimmers, vehicles and pedestrians and is an ideal, cost-effective solution for many force protection and homeland security applications. HARRIER applications include:
HARRIER systems provide integrated air, marine and ground surveillance and monitoring for a wide range of facility types

  • Airspace monitoring & surveillance
  • Aircraft detection & tracking
  • Marine and coastal surveillance
  • Airspace see-and-avoid
  • Intrusion detection
  • Collision & obstruction avoidance
  • Perimeter security
  • Shoreline protection

Applications:
HARRIER applications include a wide range of sites, types, sizes and configurations from single facilities to large-area or linear radar networks for force protection and facility security, including:

  • Commercial airports, civil aviation airports & military airfields
  • Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operations support
  • Government installations
  • Industrial plants, refineries & power plants
  • Ports, waterways & coastlines
  • Border control areas
  • High security facilities
  • Gap filler airspace surveillance radars

Interoperability:
MERLIN Sentinel S30 Airspace Surveillance Radar displayHARRIER systems can operate as a standalone security/ force protection radar system detecting and alerting perimeter intrusions on land, by air and on water. The system can be programmed to detect intruders (personnel, vehicles, ships, boats, aircraft) crossing a pre-set site perimeter, providing automated notifications to security forces. Alarm functionality can provide notification of security events via pager or cellular phone or direct to remote monitoring stations. HARRIER ASR systems can also be used as coverage gap filler radars to provide data for large-scale navigation and military surveillance radars in areas blocked by terrain or structures including wind turbine farms.

Integrated Technology:
HARRIER systems are use high speed scanning for enhanced small target detection in high clutter environments such as developed areas, terrain and high sea states. Systems are optimized for detection of small targets that includes surface swimmers, low-profile manually propelled watercraft, small motorized high-speed watercraft, floating objects, low flying aircraft and ultralights. Automatic detection and tracking includes user-defined Custom airport HARRIER with integrated radar, panoramic video and acoustic warning/deterrent features on a single displaymonitoring and alarm zones. Systems are offered in fixed and mobile configurations and can be linearly networked to cover large areas such as border crossings, coastlines and large facilities. DeTect's HARRIER technology is highly customizable providing radar, video, and thermal detection and acoustic deterrent through a single user interface display with advanced alerting and response features all controllable remotely.

Features include:

  • Microsoft Windows-based operating software
  • User displays & Interfaces developed for non-technical user
  • Integrated radar, thermal, video, acoustic, sonar & deterrents
  • Display activated "point-and-click" video zoom & deterrent activation
  • Compatible with other security & display systems
  • Site-specific underlay maps includes mobile mapping technology
  • Identifies & tracks each target by size, position, speed & heading
  • Audible & visual intrusion alarms
  • Optional notification by email & radio pager
  • Automated data recording & archiving

Deterrent Technologies:
HARRIER technology supports manual and automatic radar-directed deterrence with the LRAD Extreme systemHARRIER is compatible with many deterrent systems including the Long Range Acoustic Device™ (LRAD), a highly directional acoustic array designed for extended range communication, warning and deterrence. The LRAD, offered through DeTect, is widely used by the military for force protection and long-range hailing. LRAD utilizes highly efficient, customized capacitive transducers and requires modest power requirements - less than 200 to 400 watts to achieve full output. The high directivity of the LRAD device reduces the risk of exposing nearby personnel or peripheral bystanders to excessive audio levels while delivering maximum communication or deterrence to intruders. LRAD is fully integrable with HARRIER and includes options for automatic, radar direction of the system to provide rapid detection, assessment and response to intrusions or threats.
