RADAR System Characterization Extended to Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation for the Lab-Volt TM Training System (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781288395989)

Modeling RADAR signals in software allows the testing of potential electronic counter measures and electronic counter counter measures without the associated RADAR hardware and test facilities. Performing a characterization process on a real world RADAR system reveals all imperfections within the system. The Lab-Volt TM RADAR system served as the characterized real world RADAR system. The characterization process consisted of measurements at selected front panel locations on the Lab-Volt TM transmitter module, antenna pedestal, receiver module, and dual channel sampler module. Due to the overwhelming influence of antenna parameters on a received signal, the characterization process also attempted to derive an antenna transfer function that described how the antenna lters a signal that is passed through it. The characterization process also determined the manner in which different adjustments influenced the signal.
