Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to scanning radar reflector systems, methods, and apparatuses; even more particularly to a system, method, and apparatus for scanning and reflecting a radar beam transmitted by a radar transmitter onboard an aerial vehicle with radar reflectors equipped on unmanned aerial vehicles. The radar reflection system may include one or more unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with a one or more axis gimbal upon which a radar reflector is mounted. A user may position the unmanned aerial vehicle and the radar reflector to target a specific region for radar scanning.
