Abstract

In this article is proposed new solution for ship tracking via surveillance radars onboard of Stratospheric Platform Systems (SPS). Such tracking system has significant competitive edge in contrast to the surveillance radar at shore or onboard ships, aircraft and spacecraft. The idea and proposal of employing Tracking Surveillance Radars (TSR) onboard SPS is novel and very cost effective. It can be implemented for control of maritime traffic and tracking of ships at sea, approaching to the anchorage, in passages and in coastal waters where must be provided higher security and safety conditions.
