Abstract. A distribution histogram of 240 types of civilian radars and 423 types
of military radars in the radio spectrum based on the analysis of open sources
is presented. The summarized histogram illustrating the distribution of all
radar types is obtained.
Types
of radars forming high-density areas on the histograms are described. For now,
the most loaded band is the X-band. This can be explained by the fact that the
radars of this range have high resolution for small atmospheric attenuations.
For now, the most unloaded band is the millimeter wavelength band (frequencies
from 25 GHz and higher). The reason for this is the high atmospheric
attenuations. An analysis of the perspective radio spectrum load is performed.
Considering
the high resolution and the small size of the microwave path, the millimeter
range radars are promising in various branches of both military and civil
technics. Examples of such branches include UAVs and personal vehicles.
The
obtained histograms can be used in the designing process of electronic
intelligence facilities, for operation planning of radio monitoring equipment,
for choosing the operating frequencies of developing radars, in the field of
communication, radio control, electronic warfare and in other directions of
radio engineering.
Key words: radiolocation, radar,
radars types distribution, radio spectrum load, radio spectrum, radio
intelligence.
