EchoShield MESA Radar
Echodyne
EchoShield is a medium-range, software-defined, pulse-Doppler, cognitive 4D metamaterials ESA (MESA®) radar. With the equivalent of more than 500 Tx/Rx modules, EchoShield intelligently searches a large, customizable Field of View (FoV) and tracks ~1,000 objects of interest with industry-leading angular accuracy. High-fidelity data is delivered in a proprietary format over a standard TCP/IP Gigabit Ethernet connection with multiple data-rich output options available via API. EchoShield utilizes cognitive radar concepts to combine different waveforms, beam schedules, and other resources into quick “Mission Sets” that tailor radar performance to need. A steady cadence of software updates offers new capabilities and add/extend Mission Sets. Highly precise object metadata enriches fusion and decision-making, while quick setup and on-the-move (OTM) capabilities bring value to multiple mission types.
EchoFlight
Echodyne
EchoFlight is an airborne variant of the EchoGuard line. As drones become an ever-greater threat to warfighters and assets, novel methods for Counter-UAS are required. EchoFlight is designed for use on airborne platforms and is customizable to mission requirements. For temporary missions, EchoFlight’s Field of View (FoV) can be reduced for interceptor applications or kept broad for airspace surveillance. In either case, a low signals footprint on a mobile platform confuses enemy counter-fire and maintains situational awareness.
EchoGuard
Echodyne
Echodyne combines patented MESA® technology with powerful software to deliver ESA performance in a compact solid-state format that detects, tracks, and classifies objects of interest on the ground or in the air, regardless of weather or lighting conditions. Breakthrough Tx/Rx cell density directs thousands of pencil-thin beams across the 120° azimuth x 80° elevation field of view (FoV) in milliseconds. EchoGuard rapidly detects and precisely tracks up to 20 objects of interest, delivering high-fidelity data in a proprietary format over a standard TCP/IP Gigabit Ethernet connection. With multiple data-rich output options available by API, including raw data, EchoGuard’s superior spatial accuracy creates a robust data foundation for a range of Defense applications.
