Progress in Radar Research 2021
The 2021 Workshop on Progress in Radar Research (PIRR 2021) is an opportunity for radar researchers to share their current research and interact with their research peer group. It is jointly organised by Defence Science and Technology Group (DST Group) and the University of Adelaide’s Radar Research Centre (AR2C).
Due to the Covid-induced delays, this workshop will now be held on Wednesday 2nd – Thursday 3rd February 2022, at the University of Adelaide, North Terrace, Adelaide.
About PIRR
The PIRR series of workshops, held annually except for the “3” and “8” years when Australia hosts the International Conference on Radar (RADAR 20xx), is the annual Australian meeting of the community engaged in research into radar and allied fields. Past workshops have attracted over 100 registrants. PIRR 2021 will follow a similar format to that of previous PIRR workshops, with 2 days of presentations and discussion.
Topics of interest
PIRR 2021 topics include research into any area of radar, tracking or related areas of science or technology. Consistent with the intent of the workshop series, PIRR 2021 welcomes proposals for presentations in areas outside radar which bear on issues faced by radar researchers.
