Description
The Scanter 5202 is an X-band short-range primary surveillance radar, part of the Scanter 5000 radar family, with an instrumented range of 18 km. It is specifically designed for use in wind farms, featuring reduced range and radar signal processing compared to other family versions. This system monitors the airspace around a wind farm and activates obstruction lights only when aircraft are detected within a specified range, ensuring the lights remain off at night when no aircraft are in the vicinity.
