The Kazan Meteor Radar (KMR) is a new generation system deployed on the scientific research area of Kazan Federal University, Tatarstan, Russia (55 N) in March 2015. KMR transmits 15kW power in pulse and uses single antenna all sky configuration for transmission and five-antennas for reception of meteor radioechos. The new design increases the sensitivity of the radar enabling the detection of about 6000 of particles per day. Initial surveys show that KMR observes a very strong contribution of the North Hemisphere source enabling primary on-line analysis software of meteor detection and position determination parameters. The off-line analysis software developed in Kazan University is able to determine the radiant coordinates of meteor showers and to calculate meteoroid orbital parameters using the raw data [1]. Finally, results from various radar meteor researches will be presented in this contribution. It will be shown the radiant coordinates of meteor showers detected throughout the year 2018 (Fig.1). 40000 35000 30000 25000 Kazan 20000 Skiymet 15000 10000 5000 0 10/16 12/16 02/17 04/17 06/17 08/17 10/17 12/17 02/18 04/18 06/18 08/18 10/18 12/18 Figure 1.
