ANALYSIS OF EXISTING WAYS TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF DETERMINING MALOG-SIZED AIR OBJECTS OF RADIOLOCATION AIR SPACE CONTROLS

Abstract

The subject matter of the article is ways to increase the efficiency of detecting small airborne objects with radar airspace control devices. The goal is to analyze the existing ways to improve the detection of small airborne objects by airborne radar controls. The tasks are: analysis of the main trends in the development of small airborne objects to reduce their radar visibility, the main flight technical characteristics of small airborne objects, trends in the development of radiolocation control systems for airspace, the main methods for reducing the effective dispersion surface, methods for detecting small airborne objects, features of the radar detection of small airborne objects. The methods used are: methods of analysis and synthesis of complex information systems, methods of radar, methods of simulation and statistical modeling. The following results were obtained. It has been established that when solving the problem of airspace control there is a discrepancy between the requirements for the efficiency of solving radar control problems, namely, the identification of small-sized air objects, and the capabilities of modern means of conducting airborne radar control. It has been established that the use of traditional methods to increase the efficiency of detecting small airborne objects leads to an increase in the required number of radar stations, an increase in power consumption and, consequently, an increase in the cost of creating and maintaining the next radar field. Identified alternative ways to improve the detection of small airborne objects with radar airspace control devices. Conclusions. The direction of further research is the use of modern radar technologies that require the development and implementation.
