Legal, Political, Geographical and Infrastructural Opportunities for Deploying European Radar Sensor Assets for Space Surveillance and Tracking Including Ultra-Peripheral Sites.

As part of the European Union Space Surveillance and Tracking Support Framework (EUSST), DLR is responsible for subcontracting analysis activities related to the strategic and operational dimension of a quasi-global network of heterogeneous radar systems. In this context, the study ‘Legal, Political, Geographical and Infrastructural Opportunities for Deploying European Radar Sensor Assets for Space Surveillance and Tracking Including Ultra-Peripheral Sites’ shall establish the range of potential sensor sites accessible to European actors, and examine their sociotechnical dimension and potential constraints. The findings will inform discussions on the evolution of the EUSST network.
