Introduction to coastal HF maritime surveillance radars.
Abstract
This paper presents the main technical characteristics and working performances of coastal maritime surveillance
radars, such as low-power High-Frequency Surface Wave Radars (HFSWR) and Over the Horizon Radars (OTHR).
These radars have demonstrated to be a cost-effective long-range early-warning sensor for ship detection and tracking
in coastal waters, sea channels and passages. In this work, multi-target tracking and data fusion techniques are applied
to live-recorded data from a network of oceanographic HFSWR stations installed in Jindalee Operational Radar
Network (JORN), Wellen Radar (WERA) in Ligurian Sea (Mediterranean Sea), CODAR Ocean Sebsorsin and in the
German Bight (North Sea). The coastal Imaging Sciences Research (ISR) HFSWR system, Multi-static ISR HF Radar,
Ship Classification using Multi-Frequency HF Radar, Coastal HF radar surveillance of pirate boats and Different
projects of coastal HF radars for vessels detecting are described.
