Webinar – X-Band Innovations for Defense Technology

As defense and aerospace missions become increasingly complex, radar systems are being pushed to deliver greater performance while operating within stricter Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) constraints. Today's platforms require longer detection ranges, improved target discrimination, enhanced reliability, and greater system flexibility, all without adding unnecessary complexity.

To meet these evolving demands, X-band radar technology continues to advance through innovative RF front-end architectures, next-generation semiconductor technologies, and more intelligent system-level design approaches. Join Paul Prudhomme, Senior Product Line Manager - High-Performance Solutions business unit for Qorvo to explore the latest developments shaping high-performance phased-array and multifunction radar systems. Practical design strategies and emerging technologies that are helping engineers maximize radar capability while optimizing efficiency, thermal performance, and system integration are discussed.
