In today's video, we demonstrate how to create plots and tracks using FreeScopes.

Radar systems can be broadly categorized into two types: coherent and non-coherent. The key difference between these two systems lies in how they process the returning radar signals.

Learn how SkyRadar tools meet ICAO Doc 10057's ATSEP Surveillance Qualification Training requirements with hands-on learning for taxonomy levels 3 and 4.

Tracking moving objects is one of the core functions of radar systems, particularly in applications like air traffic control (ATC) where detecting and following aircraft is vital for safety.

This article explores ATSEP Surveillance Qualification Training under ICAO Doc 10057, emphasizing hands-on learning with SkyRadar's advanced tools.

This article describes how ICAO Doc 10057 emphasizes hands-on qualification training for ATSEP and how SkyRadar meets these standards with tailored solutions.

Rating training is a critical phase in the professional development of Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel (ATSEP). It represents the specialized training required to ensure personnel are competent to manage specific systems or equipment in their operational environment. This stage of training bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical, hands-on expertise, enabling ATSEP personnel to perform their roles effectively and safely within complex air traffic management (ATM) systems.

FreeScopes AI 1 equips ATSEP trainees with skills in target detection, data interpretation, and anomaly analysis for effective AI-based air traffic management.

The Radar Cross Section (RCS) is a crucial factor in radar systems, as it determines how detectable an object is. In simple terms, RCS is a measure of how much radar energy a target reflects back to the radar receiver. This reflection varies based on the size, shape, material, and orientation of the object. Objects with larger RCS values, such as aircraft or ships, tend to reflect more radar signals and are therefore easier to detect. Conversely, smaller objects or those designed to absorb radar waves (like stealth aircraft) have lower RCS and can evade detection more easily.
