Abstract
A radar system and a method can utilize a radar antenna, such as, an active electronically scanned array antenna. The radar system can include a processor configured to scan a volume of space via the radar antenna to detect aircraft threats and to detect weather threats. The processing system can utilize a first pattern to detect the aircraft threats or obstacles and a second pattern to detect the weather threats.
