Abstract
A device constructed as simple as possible shall be provided for simulating, in laboratory tests of radar seekers, the conditions of free space with a moving target emitting radar radiation. To this end, a radar anechoic chamber is formed as hollow body pivotable about the radar seeker and serving as ray trap. A radar transmitter is arranged in this hollow body.
Claims10
A device for the simulation of radar targets within the framework of laboratory tests of the behaviour of radar seekers or of multimode seekers having a radar channel,
- (a) wherein, by a radar anechoic chamber, an environment for a radar seeker provided with a detector is achieved, which comes close to the conditions of free space with regard to the radar radiation measurable at the location of the detector, and
- (b) in which means emitting radar radiation are arranged,
- characterized in that
- (c) the anechoic chamber is formed by a hollow body pivotable about the radar seeker,
- (d) the hollow body has such a shape, that it acts as ray trap,
- (e) at least one radar transmitter is fixedly arranged in this hollow body.
