Digital Radar Tech to Enable Distributed Sensing

Recent developments in digital radar technology highlight significant advancements and new applications across various industries.

digital radar market is projected to grow from USD 5.9 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 13.7 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 18.2% from 2024 to 2029.

1. Distributed Sensing for Military Applications: Sandia National Laboratories is developing a digital radar architecture that replaces traditional analog signal processing with digital firmware and software. This innovation allows a single sensor to perform multiple tasks, reducing the need for bulky equipment. The new system is jam-resistant, flexible, and capable of real-time data processing. It aims to enhance military operations by enabling distributed electronic warfare, intelligence, and surveillance missions using unmanned aircraft and smart weapons.

2. Automotive Sector Innovations: Austin-based startup Uhnder has introduced the first mass-produced 4D digital imaging radar-on-chip, which debuted in the Fisker Ocean electric SUV. This radar system offers 360-degree coverage and high-resolution detection of smaller objects, improving safety and performance in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). The technology mitigates interference issues and enhances object detection accuracy in various environmental conditions.

3. Contract Awards for Advanced Radar Production: Lockheed Martin secured a $276 million contract from the U.S. Air Force to produce variable aperture digital radar systems. These systems are expected to provide enhanced capabilities for military aircraft, contributing to improved situational awareness and target tracking.
