Drone detection

　　Kelvin Hughes, the London-based company that makes radar systems for security and surveillance applications, is launching its new drone detection system at the Home Office Security & Policing exhibition at Farnborough. The SMS-D is described as an integrated, medium-range, radar-based surveillance system for the detection and tracking of small aerial targets.

　　The SMS-D, pictured, tracks the real-time position of these aerial targets, including those that could be used to attack infrastructure, vehicles or individuals as well as those that may be used for hostile observation or smuggling. Based on the company's solid-state SharpEye X-Band solid-state radar transceiver, the system is able to detect drones up to 1.5 kms away, the makers claim.

　　The product provides continuously updated bearing, distance, altitude and velocity data. The latest addition to the Kelvin Hughes SMS (Single Mast Solution) range, it identifies targets automatically through its video tracking.

　　The SMS is designed to hold a combination of radar, optical and thermal imaging devices, to provide 360 degree surveillance of a site perimeter or border plus provide detection of drones or other UAVs. The SMS can be fixed to a permanent structure or mounted on a vehicle to further extend the envelope of detection.

　　无人机探测

　　Kelvin Hughes是伦敦的一家雷达系统的安全和应用公司，目前在位于法恩堡的Home Office Security & Policing展会推出了其新的无人机探测系统。SMS-D被描述为用于检测和追踪小型空中目标的集成的、中程的、基于雷达的监视系统。

　　SMS-D追踪这些空中目标的实时位置，包括可用于攻击基础设施，车辆或个人以及可用于敌对观察或禁运的武器。基于该公司的固态SharpEye X-Band固态雷达收发器，该系统能探测到1.5公里外的无人机。

　　该产品提供无人机持续的方位，距离，高度和速度数据的更新。最新增加的Kelvin Hughes SMS系列（单桅解决方案），它通过其视频跟踪自动识别目标。

　　SMS被设计为一个具有雷达，光学和热成像的组合设备，提供对地点周界或边界的360度监控，并提供无人机或其他无人飞行器的探测。SMS可以固定到永久结构或安装在车辆上，以进一步扩展检测范围。
