SAN DIEGO, July 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VisionWave Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VWAV) (the “Company” or “VisionWave”) today announced the filing of a provisional patent application number 64/111,834 with the United States Patent and Trademark Office covering GhostSight™, a proposed radar and RF sensing architecture designed to enhance detection, tracking, classification, and situational awareness across defense, security, critical-infrastructure, maritime, and airspace-protection environments.
GhostSight™ is designed as a
hybrid passive radar system
that may use both existing environmental RF signals and VisionWave-controlled cooperative illumination sources to detect and interpret objects within an area of interest. Unlike conventional active radar systems, which rely on a centralized transmitter and may expose the radar site through their emissions, GhostSight™ is being designed around a passive receiver layer that can remain receive-only while the illumination environment is intelligently shaped by distributed RF sources.
The provisional application covers an architecture in which environmental RF sources — such as communication, broadcast, satellite, maritime, aviation, and other ambient RF signals — may be combined with cooperative multi-band illuminator nodes to create a resilient and adaptive sensing environment. These cooperative illuminators may operate as a coordinated distributed layer, supporting wide-area awareness, localized detection, and improved sensing diversity without requiring the receiver network itself to transmit radar illumination.
GhostSight™ is designed to support both
long-range awareness
and
short-range small-object detection
within a unified architecture. Lower-frequency RF layers may support detection and tracking of larger or more distant objects, while VHF, UHF, microwave, and related bands may support shorter-range detection and classification of smaller objects, including drones, compact UAVs, and low-altitude threats.
The system is further designed to use AI/ML-based fusion to combine multi-source and multi-band RF observations, evaluate signal quality, reduce false detections, reject ghost targets, classify objects, assign confidence levels, and place detected objects on a live operational map or command interface.
“We believe GhostSight™ represents a new direction in radar architecture,” said
Danny Rittman, The Company’s CTO
. “Rather than relying only on a conventional radar transmitter or only on uncontrolled ambient RF sources, GhostSight™ is intended to create an intelligent sensing environment that can adapt to the mission, the RF landscape, the target type, and the condition of the network.”
The provisional filing also includes concepts for distributed cooperative illuminator operation, resilient mesh-coordinated behavior, autonomous or semi-autonomous fallback operation, multi-band detection, passive receiver processing, synchronization, AI/ML fusion, map-based situational awareness, and integration with external sensors or command systems.
Potential applications include military-base protection, counter-UAS operations, border and perimeter surveillance, airport and airspace security, maritime and coastal monitoring, critical infrastructure protection, forward operating base defense, and mobile or expeditionary sensing deployments.
VisionWave believes GhostSight™ may become a foundational component within its broader portfolio of intelligent defense and sensing technologies, including distributed RF perception, autonomous security networks, and AI-controlled situational-awareness systems.
