Introducing SCANTER Ground Surveillance Radar
With SCANTER Ground Surveillance Radar, Terma is introducing a short-to-medium range surveillance radar capable of 360° search and detection of humans and other small moving objects.


Based on inherited technology from the successful SCANTER radar series, the SCANTER Ground Surveillance Radar complements the extensive SCANTER radar portfolio - tailored for detection of small targets in clutter-filled environments.
Short-to-medium range
The SCANTER Ground Surveillance Radar is a short-to-medium range surveillance radar. It can be used as an autonomous radar or as part of an integrated network of sensors.
Low probability of interception
Thanks to high frequency and low power emission, the SCANTER Ground Surveillance Radar has a low probability of being intercepted.
Doppler processing
As a Doppler radar the SCANTER Ground Surveillance Radar detects movement in the presence of high clutter. The high update rate and low false alarm rate ensure uninterrupted and reliable surveillance.
System and Functions
The radar sensor unit comprises a high-resolution radar sensor, a processing unit and a communications module. It easily interfaces with other sensors, eg. video cameras and infrared sensors.
Set up in a complete system, the SCANTER Ground Surveillance Radar system may be connected with one or more radar sensors connected via LAN. All communication between the units is performed via TCP/IP and UDP.


  • The radar is designed for Ku-band operation.
  • Transmitter: Generates pulse bursts at the desired frequency.
  • Receiver: Receives the signal with very high sensitivity.
  • Communications and processing module: Performs the digitalization and the processing of the received radar video signal and controls internal and external communication (serial, Ethernet...).
