Nair seeks higher support for indigenous radar technology
ISRO chairman N Madhavan Nair

Bangalore: The indigenous development of radar technology has taken a hit due to lack of structural code and education system focusing on microwave studies, former ISRO chairman N Madhavan Nair said today.

Delivering the keynote address at the biennial International Radar Symposium India (IRSI) here, he said the country had just two universities offering studies in microwave and radio frequency and such attitude was the main cause of the country struggling to develop new technologies in the sector.

He said ISRO and Electronic Research and Development Establishment (LRDE), a DRDO set up had remained the only developers of radar technology and it was high time the Indian industry intervened.

"We have supplied technologies to L and T to make ground radar and Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) with Doppler radar. Now that the Indian radar technology is matured it is time for the industry to come forward to take the technology to next level," he said.

Mr Nair said ISRO was developing a new radar after the success of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) that rode on Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft and found water on the moon, which could track all satellites in the region and also can be used for monitoring multi-stages of rocket
