China Has Invented Radar-Dodging Technology; Planes Will Easily Cross The Border
Frequency Diverse Array (FDA)-based radar technology has the ability to hide planes from enemy radar
Chinese scientists have revealed that they have developed an advanced radar technology that will help protect Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) aircraft, or AVICS, from enemy radar.
According to the World News Agency, AVICS aircraft are usually the backbone of air combat strategies, but their powerful radar signals easily bring them to enemy targets.
However, according to Chinese scientists, new technology now makes these signals so complex that it becomes almost impossible for radar to identify them or determine their exact location.
This system is based on the principle of “Frequency Diverse Array (FDA), in which each antenna is designed to operate at a slightly different frequency.
Experts have likened it to dozens of singers singing the same tune but in different styles, which results in the sound being scattered and making it difficult to determine the source.
According to Chinese media, Wang Bo, a researcher at the Air Force Engineering University, and his team say that this technology not only has the ability to mislead enemy radar, but also has the ability to mislead.
Initial experiments have shown that thanks to this system, enemy equipment has failed to pinpoint the exact position of the aircraft for several kilometers. Moreover, this system can adapt signals in real time in such a way that the enemy radar is paralyzed but communication with friendly forces remains intact.
Although scientists have acknowledged that extremely powerful computers and precise coordination are essential for the effective use of this technology, they say that if successful, it will prove to be a new chapter in the survival of AVIC aircraft and air combat superiority.
