Ispas (Norway)

Advanced Radar Solutions for Oil Spill Detection, RCS Measurements, and RF Simulation

ISPAS Oil Spill Detection (OSD) radar system delivers high-performance oil spill monitoring using state-of-the-art FMCW polarimetric Ku-band technology. Capable of detecting oil on the sea surface—even in calm conditions (seastate 0)—this radar features electronically scanning antennas that cover 100 degrees in under 0.2 seconds. ISPAS OSD has been successfully deployed on major offshore platforms, including Edvard Grieg (since 2017) and Johan Castberg (since 2018), ensuring reliable environmental surveillance in the North Sea. Radar Cross Section (RCS) Measurements by ISPAS offer precision testing and analysis for radar reflectivity. Our team provides custom RF equipment and full support for both indoor and outdoor RCS measurement setups. Whether for defense applications, aerospace testing, or industrial research, ISPAS delivers tailored RF and radar solutions to meet complex technical requirements. Nordic Training Emitter (NTE) is a custom-designed X-band RF signal generator developed by ISPAS to simulate real radar systems. It transmits high-power radar signals for training, testing, and operational readiness, offering a realistic radar environment for defense and research institutions.
