RTI Group: Model of the airborne radar system for remote sensing of the Earth (DBLC DZZ)

2022: Presentation of the layout of the airborne radar complex

On August 17, 2022, the Academician A.L. Mints Radio Engineering Institute (RTI Group) announced a mock-up of the P-band airborne radar complex for remote sensing of the Earth (DBLC DZZ).

The DCS DBL layout is based on a typical structure with unified control, signal generation and processing equipment, as well as with modular AFAR of the decimal wavelength range.

DBL DZZ can be installed on most small aircraft, as well as on satellites. Depending on the type of carrier, the DBMS can solve a wide range of tasks, including: detection and recognition of ground objects, including moving and disguised ones, mapping of the area, tracking of dynamic processes of natural and man-made nature, detection of underground objects such as oil and gas pipelines, communication lines, etc.

In the developed DBL, technologies for increasing information content occupy an important place. To do this, a number of innovative methods are used that allow you to expand the shooting band due to the multipath reception mode and increase the resolution of the subject in question in a detailed observation mode. Also, data processing uses the capabilities of artificial intelligence and self-learning neural networks. Thus, the machine learning capability of the Complex is created. In the scientific center of technologies of onboard radar complexes, flight tests of DBLC are carried out in order to develop the unique capabilities of underground radar terrain.

We are working on, algorithms thanks to which the air (space) carrier equipped with our complex will be able to carry out geodetic reconnaissance of the area during construction transport the infrastructure, as well as monitor its condition during use, - the Director General of JSC RTI GROUP Anoshko Yu.G. Ultimate goal in this direction is to create a universal complex, which will be able to carry out the whole range of geodetic works, starting with the study of topography and soil condition, ending with as-built surveys of ready-made sections of the main line.

These complexes are also in demand in other spheres of the national economy, including for informational support of safe year-round navigation along the Northern Sea Route, monitoring the state of gas pipelines and preventing the destruction of oil and gas production platforms as a result of a collision with drifting ice fields and icebergs, detecting foci of man-made disasters and oil product spills.
