Even if you know that FHSS was in use, and even if you also know the hopping pattern, FHSS RADAR would be almost impossible to detect. A cop could leave this sucker blasting constantly and never trigger any current RADAR detector.
The good news: this is an old idea, and had been around for almost 2 decades. The fact that such a thing does not already exist means it's either too difficult or too expensive to build and/or get licensed. Or perhaps no one bothers because LIDAR does a much better job.
