CASA's engineered systems concept

CASA's engineered systems concept is to use large numbers of small radars spaced several tens of kilometers apart and arranged to operate in a collaborative network. Such a network would not suffer blockage from Earth curvature or terrain and would be capable of providing coverage from near ground level up to the tops of storms, eliminating the gap in coverage that today’s Doppler radars produce. CASA students are heavily involved in the development and implementation of this system.
