Laboratory Radar Simulators

We have designed laboratory radar signal simulators for testing electronic warfare systems. These systems produce low-power modulated RF signals to be used as signal sources for testing electronic warfare systems in a laboratory environment. These signals can also include interference and jamming signals to better simulate real world conditions.
