Abstract :
Radar pulse measurements are a critical part of radar, EW (Electronic Warfare) and ELINT systems. Radar pulse measurements have historically presented many challenges for the design engineer, production test manager and field technician. The transient nature of the radar pulse combined with modern pulse compression schemes often demand elaborate test setups. With the advent of faster technology the ability to use a FFT based measurement approach greatly simplifies these measurements. Today we will review the measurement challenges and the approached used by a FFT based tool.
