Confidently Accelerate Your Radar Target Test Setups in the Lab or End-of-Line (EOL)

For the radar target simulator test setup, among the challenges, especially when conducted over-the-air (OTA), is accurately simulating the radar-cross-section (RCS). The entire path will contain losses and mismatches that impact accuracy. As a solution, the E8719A target simulator OTA calibration feature provides a highly repeatable, metrology driven automated routine leveraging the small palm-size U9361M Receiver Calibrator as a known calibrated source to perform the OTA calibration. The measured losses can then be fed back into the RTS where adjustments can be made to ensure a well calibrated path for the overall radar target test.
