Abstract

The development of anti-stealth technologies become popular recently, especially the method to tackle the 5th combat aircraft such as F-22 from the US Air Force. Terahertz Radar has become one effective and promising way to detect stealth unit, and the characteristic of frequency makes it effective to discover the 5th stealth unit. However, the result is relying on many uncontrollable influence factors such as climate, temperature, speed, etc. In this work, we discuss the cooperation strategy to enhance the effect of Terahertz Radar systems, through the cooperation using space based information networks, the terahertz radar and traditional microwave radar could work together through the high-speed communication link, the speed and the accuracy of the detection could be improved significantly.
