University of Birmingham awarded a contract to AVEILLANT LIMITED for the supply and installation of two radar systems capable of forming a coherent network.

The radars are intended to operate in staring mode with overlapped coverage and will form part of a physical demonstrator within a quantum hub project, supporting the demonstration of advanced quantum oscillators and their impact on monostatic and networked radar performance.

The systems will enable a two-node radar network for evaluating ultra-low phase noise quantum timing sources and developing novel networked radar sensing with distributed clock signals.

The contract value is AUD 342,000.
