https://www.hindawi.com/journals/ijmst/2014/958905/ A multifrequency radar system for detecting humans and classifying their activities at short and long ranges is described. The short-range radar system operates within the S-Band frequency range for through-wall applications at distances of up to 3 m. It utilizes two separate waveforms which are selected via switching: a wide-band noise waveform or a continuous single tone. The long-range radar system operating in the W-Band millimeter-wave frequency range performs at distances of up to about 100 m in free space and up to about 30 m through light foliage. It employs a composite multimodal signal consisting of two waveforms, a wide-band noise waveform and an embedded single tone, which are summed and transmitted simultaneously.

https://www.sea-hawk.com/Small-target-detection/default.aspx If you are looking for superior small target detection for your vessel or for your offshore location, a polarimetric radar antenna should be your best choice. The Sea-Hawk radar is your future small target detection system. Sea-Hawk polarimetric radars are multi polarized, resulting in far more detailed detection ability than traditional radar systems. Sea-Hawk can detect very small, and even fast moving, objects and would therefore raise your small target detection capabilities to a level you could only dream about until recently.

A corresponding apparatus, system, and computer readable medium are also disclosed herein.
