1. GENERAL
This Installation Manual describes installation procedures for the ELM-2114 Persistent
Perimeter Detection Radar.
The ELM-2114 persistent perimeter detection radar is an advanced high-resolution radar with
unique and outstanding capabilities. Featuring simultaneous multi beam technology, it
provides persistent surveillance and instantaneous target tracking over the entire region of
interest (ROI), allowing an immediate and simultaneous detection, monitoring and tracking of
all moving ground targets in the ROI, in tough weather conditions.
The main feature of the ELM-2114 is extremely low false alarm rate, crucial for perimeter
monitoring. It is equipped with a stationary (non-rotating) planar array covering (Staring at) an
azimuth sector of 90°, with detection range capabilities of (up to) 500 m meters for a moving
person, and up to 1000 m meters for moving vehicles, characterized by high reliability and
maintenance-less hardware.
Unlike most Radars, this Radar does not have a scanning (mechanical or electronic) beam but
rather covers all the area of interest simultaneously, using the Multibeam principle.
The Radar has the capability to be interface to a visual aid (day and/or night) (option) which
can be steered automatically from the display station, allowing the operator to classify targets
in the area of Interest.

3. SYSTEM MAPS INSTALLATION / SETUP
3.1. Manual installation
The System application displays raster and vector maps.
System Maps installation requires the following steps:
Get raster maps, which are Orth-photo maps of the Geo TIFF format, uses WGS84
datum: (GeoTIFF format is georeference raster imagery, WGS84 datum is the World
Geodetic System provided in 1984) in resolution of 1 to 5 meters per pixel.
To obtain real measurements, verify that the Ortho-photograph is an aerial photograph
geometrically corrected ("orthorectified"), such that the scale is unified and it has no
distortion.
The map coverage area should be 1Km x 1Km square for the region of interest, while
the Radar placed at the corner of square and the surveillance area is within the square.
Place the map file placed in the Maps directory on your operation station.

7. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION GUIDE LINES:
7.1. Installation height:
Between 1 to 1.5 meters and above the terrain to avoid multi pass at the radar coverage area.
7.2. ROI Observation Requirement:
180° azimuths with ± 7.5° elevation sector in front of the Radar has to be free of
objects obscuring the line of sight including cables and wires.
The Radar elevation beam shape is a 15º wide "Pencil Beam" type. This beam has 0º
squint relative to the mechanical radar elevation axis.
7.3. Two radars installation - Distance calculation
Installing two Radars for a 180sector results in a minimal detection range in the overlapping
region between the Radars. The minimal range in the overlapping region is dependent on the
distance and angle between the Radars. The distance between the two installed Radars (for
180° coverage) is calculated as:
)]45(6sin[2

 Ld ,
where d is the distance between the two units, L is the minimum detection range (blind range)
and αis the deviation from 90between the Radars. is 39° < α< 45° in order to cover 180°
in azimuth, and still get overlapping between the two units at the center of the covered area.
