Abstract :
This paper discusses the systems architecture of the CASA Phased Array Radar System, the Phase-Tilt Escan Radar System, for deployment in a CASA DCAS network of low power, solid-state phased array radars. The paper highlights the high-level system´s architecture accompanied by measured data from the subsystems.
