RADAR IS AT THE HEART OF AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL, HOMELAND DEFENSE, WEATHER PREDICTION AND NATIONAL SECURITY.
THERE ARE MORE THAN
600 RADAR SYSTEMSACROSS THE U.S., INCLUDING ALASKA AND HAWAII, CANADA AND THE
CARIBBEAN THAT DETECT VITAL INFORMATION FOR THESE CRITICAL ENTITIES.
MANY OF THESE RADAR SYSTEMS ARE AGING,
SOME DATE BACK TO THE SEVENTIES,
AND ARE IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT.
THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION, NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE AND DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY ARE WORKING TO
DECREASE THE NUMBER AND TYPES OF RADAR SYSTEMS AND REPLACE THEM WITH ONE ADVANCED, HIGHLY SOPHISTICATED MULTI-PURPOSE RADAR.
THIS RADAR PROGRAM IS KNOWN AS
SPECTRUM EFFICIENT NATIONALSURVEILLANCE RADAR
AND WILL PROVIDE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL, AIR DEFENSE AND AIR SURVEILLANCE, BORDER
AND CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION AND WEATHER FORECASTING PREDICTION.
WHAT IS SENSR?
THE SENSR PROGRAM WILL CONSOLIDATE LEGACY SURVEILLANCE RADARS INTO
ONE INTEGRATED SYSTEM.
L S C
CARSR ARSR-4 ASR-8 ASR-9 GPN NEXRAD TDWR
SENSR WILL REPLACE EXISTING RADAR SYSTEMS
USING PROCEEDS FROM THE AUCTION OF GOVERNMENT-
OWNED, LOW FREQUENCY SPECTRUM.
PRIME SPECTRUM SPACE IS IN DEMAND BECAUSE OF THE
EXPLOSIVE GROWTH OF MOBILE BROADBAND AND THE INTERNET OF THINGS.
SENSR WILL ENABLE
IMPROVED OPERATIONS RANGING FROM SUPERIOR THREAT
DECTECTION AND WEATHER FORECASTING TO SAFER, MORE
EFFICIENT AIR TRAVEL.
NOAA WILL ACQUIRE MORE
ACCURATE AND TIMELIER WEATHER
PREDICTIONS WITH EARLIER ALERT
TIME FOR HAZARDOUS WEATHER
CONDITIONS.
DHS WILL GAIN BETTER INSIGHTS FOR
UNMANNED AIRCRAFT AND AIRSPACE
SECURITY OPERATIONS TO PROVIDE BETTER
RESPONSE ACTIONS FOR SUSPICIOUS
AIRBORNE AND MARITIME ACTIVITY
IMPACTING OUR NATION'S BORDERS.
THE FIRST PHASE OF THE SENSR PROGRAM IS CURRENTLY UNDERWAY AND, IN COOPERATION WITH INDUSTRY PARTNERS, COVERS:
RAYTHEON IS A PROUD AND COMMITTED SUPPORTER AND PARTNER, IN MAKING THE REALITY
OF THE SPECTRUM EFFICIENT NATIONAL SURVEILLANCE RADAR PROGRAM POSSIBLE.
ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
AND PLANNING
ENGINEERING STUDIES
RESEARCHING REQUIREMENTS AND EXISTING TECHNOLOGIES
SENSR’S IMPACT
THE RADAR WILL IMPROVE THE FAA’S AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT, IMPROVE
SAFETY AND SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER
THE COST OF SUSTAINMENT ACROSS
THE AVIATION ECOSYSTEM.
