Abstract

The microwave receiver OPM-121 providing automated measurement of relative side-to-main-lobe amplitude ratio of dispersed/compressed pulse radar transmitting chains operating in the L-band is presented. It also enables evaluation of phase response uncertainty using an AM pulse sequence. The instrument performance includes statistical phase and amplitude data processing. The OPM-121 may prove useful as a tool for diagnosis and fault finding in radar transmitters
