Abstract :
A concept for a Multi-Function Phased Array Radar (MPAR) to provide next generation simultaneous aircraft and weather surveillance has been developed. This paper discusses a number of system design considerations that are needed to address the multi-mission challenges of MPAR, especially with respect to its stringent timeline objectives.
