Design of radar ECCM performance testing system and its semi-physical simulation experiment

This paper describes the theory, design, implementation, simulation and testing of a radar ECCM performance testing system capable of generating target echo, clutter and jamming signal for radar ECM/ECCM experiment. With the help of the proposed testing system, the jamming styles and parameters can be smartly intercalated with a variety of simulation scenarios. The rubs are resolved such as radar states data acquisition, echo real time simulation and display & control terminals setup of signal environment. Then a radar ECM semi-physical simulation experiment is applied to measure six typical ECCM performance indexes in the signal environment generated by the testing system. Experiment and data processing results show the testing platform is valid and practical. The testing system can be used to solve problems such as radar ECCM performance evaluation, radar advanced design and ECCM strategies when the equipment is relatively small in tracking and guidance phase.
