Comparison of target detections from active MSPSR system with outputs of MLAT system

Abstract

This paper describes bistatic and multistatic measurement using active Multistatic Primary Surveillance Radar (active MSPSR) operating in L-band. The measurement system consisted of two transmitters and one receiver. Boeing 737 departing from Pardubice airport represented the target of interest. Its detections are compared with outputs from ERA multilateration (MLAT) system deployed around Pardubice. Collected data is also compared with predictions made by Mission Planning System (MIPS).
