5-18 GHz ACTIVE RADAR REFLECTOR
The Active Radar Reflector is a compact, programmable radar signal amplifier designed specifically for military radar-guided missile training scenarios. The device operates effectively across the C, X, and Ku frequency bands (5-18 GHz). Utilizing a dual-antenna configuration, the reflector amplifies and retransmits incoming radar signals according to user-defined Radar Cross Section (RCS) values.
Available with either RHCP or LHCP spiral antennas, the system supports all polarization types. Gain settings are easily programmable via an RS-232 interface, allowing adjustments to be made prior to or even during flight. Configurations are retained in memory for operational convenience.
Benefits:
- Low SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) suitable for drone-based decoy applications (e.g., MALD)
- Ideal for Suppression of Enemy Air Defence (SEAD) drone missions
- Supports radar test and validation exercises
- Effective in radar-guided missile test and validation scenarios
- Suitable for RF seeker and proximity fuse testing and validation
- Compatible with Surface-to-Air, Air-to-Air, and Anti-Ship missile training drones
- Accurately emulates aerial and surface targets with defined Radar Cross Section (RCS)
Key Specifications:
- High efficiency
- Lightweight construction
- Compact design
- User-programmable gain control
