Study of the use of a SDR Passive RaDAR for the safe outdoor operation of an atmospheric LiDAR

Our project aims to evaluate the potential of the Software Defined Radio technology associated to GNU Radio ecosystem in order to propose new and pragmatic solutions when applied to scientists needs, thus bridging the gap between engineering and research points of view. Here, we study the ability for a passive RaDAR to detect aircrafts and allow safe operation of a LiDAR.
