Technical Deep Dive
Real-Time Threat Simulation Architecture
Features "High-Speed Baseband Engine + Agile RF Front-End" design: 250MSa/s DAC with 512MSa memory generates complex waveforms (LFM/chirp/phase-coded) (Source: Input description). FPGA-based processing enables <500ns parameter updates for real-time threat adaptation. 120dB amplitude control (±0.1dB resolution) simulates signal fading and range effects. Modular design supports multi-channel configurations for MIMO threat simulation. Includes 3.5mm RF connectors for microwave frequency operation.
| Technical Dimension | UXG X-Series | Traditional Simulator | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Threat Reactivity | <500ns parameter updates | >5μs typical update latency | Enables real-time counter-countermeasure simulation |
| Signal Complexity | 512MSa memory + 200MHz BW | ≤100MSa memory, ≤100MHz BW | 5x longer waveform duration for extended scenario testing |
Adaptive Radar Threat Simulation Workflow
Scenario Setup: Load radar threat library (pulse-Doppler, LFM, phase-coded)
Configuration:
- Set initial parameters: PRI=200μs, PW=1μs, RF=9GHz
- Enable adaptive mode: Monitor EW system responses
- Program response algorithms: Frequency hop when jam detectedExecution:
- Emit radar pulse train
- On jamming detection (500ns response): Switch to 9.5GHz, increase PRI to 500μs
- Verify EW system tracks threat changes
- Test 120dB amplitude dynamics: Simulate target approaching/recedingAnalysis: Measure EW system reaction time and classification accuracy
Frequency Coverage Limitation
Maximum frequency not specified in input (Based on provided information). Mitigation: ① Use with external upconverters for mmWave bands; ② Confirm frequency range with product documentation.
