Quantum radar is an emerging class of sensing technology that exploits quantum mechanical phenomena, principally quantum entanglement, quantum illumination and quantum correlations, to achieve detection performance fundamentally superior to classical radar in specific operational regimes. The core principle involves generating entangled photon pairs (signal and idler) where the signal beam is transmitted toward the target area and the idler beam is retained locally as a reference. Upon return of the signal photons (reflected from a target), a joint measurement comparing returned signal with stored idler exploits residual quantum correlations to distinguish genuine target returns from background thermal noise with significantly higher confidence than any classical radar of equivalent transmitted power. This capability is termed quantum illumination. A critical and distinguishing requirement of this challenge is the ability to generate entangled photon pairs at room temperature without dependence on cryogenic cooling infrastructure. Current state-of-the-art microwave quantum radar prototypes globally rely on Josephson parametric amplifiers (JPAs) or Josephson parametric converters (JPCs) operating inside dilution refrigerators at millikelvin temperatures, severely limiting deployability, size, weight, power and cost. This challenge seeks innovation in room-temperature entangled pair generation using approaches such as spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) in nonlinear crystals (PPKTP, PPLN, BBO), semiconductor quantum dots, or novel electro-optomechanical transduction architectures that bypass cryogenic requirements. Achieving operationally viable entangled pair generation rates and fidelity at room temperature is the primary deep-tech innovation target. The quantum radar system shall demonstrate measurable quantum advantage over a classical radar baseline of equivalent transmitted energy in a controlled test environment, specifically improved signal-to-noise ratio in the presence of noise and clutter, improved detection probability against low radar cross-section targets, inherent resistance to electronic countermeasures including jamming and spoofing, and low probability of intercept due to extremely low signal power emission
