Key Facts

  • Powerful COTS radar signal simulation for scenario generation
  • Precise RF radar signal generation and digital radar signal generation 
  • From simple pulse trains to highly demanding direction finding scenarios with angle of arrival (AoA)
  • Realistic scenarios with maps and multiple moving emitter platforms
  • Standardized radar profiles for dynamic frequency selection (DFS) tests

Test your system. Counter the threat. 

R&S®Pulse Sequencer software together with a vector signal generator from Rohde & Schwarz or just as software provides a compelling radar signal generation solution to engineers and technicians responsible for testing radar receivers. The solution is in line with the trend of testing more in the lab rather than expensive field testing. Co-engineered with the industry, the solution supports all relevant modern radar scenario test cases and can account for real-world environments. It uses commercially available R&S®Pulse Sequencer PC software and off-the-shelf Rohde & Schwarz vector signal generators.  

Features & benefits

Test like it's real

Realistic radar scenarios

Testing radar warning equipment in realistic lab scenarios is crucial to its reliable field performance. RF and digital radar signal simulators from Rohde & Schwarz provide highly realistic scenarios taking into account all important scenario elements and system characteristics such as:

  • Pulses and sequences
  • Moving platforms and receivers
  • Trajectories and maps
  • Antenna patterns and scans
  • Pulse-on-pulse and interleaved signals
  • Mode changes
  • Multiple synchronized RF or digital channels for angle of arrival (AoA)
  • Interferers with 5G signals

R&S radar simulator

The RF radar signal simulator from Rohde & Schwarz consists of the R&S®Pulse Sequencer software and the R&S®SMW200A vector signal generator.

Pulse generation

Simulation of pulses and sequences

The basic pulse is at the core of every radar signal. The generated signal complexity ranges from simple pulses for component testing to complex pulse sequences such as modulation on pulse (MOP), special pulse shapes and interpulse modulation. Thanks to R&S®SMW200A real-time sequencing, ultralong signal playtimes simulating slow antenna scans and producing millions of pulses combined with frequency, phase and level agility are possible.

Radar scenario generation for RF and digital output signals

Typical radar scenarios with receiver and emitters

Scenarios with complex multimode radar emitters with various predefined antenna diagrams and scans or interferers and receivers can be simulated. Import your own antenna diagrams, custom scans and generate your own scenario. Since the scenario includes a propagation loss model, RF power levels as they occur in real-world scenarios are provided.

Map-based scenario generation

Simulate demanding multi-emitter electromagnetic environments with map support

R&S®Pulse Sequencer software is an easy way to simulate moving radar platforms, emitters and a moving receiver for RF and digital radar receiver testing. The software enables engineers to generate highly dynamic 3D scenarios in the lab. It is ideal for defining static or moving platforms in a 3D scenario with all the necessary realism, such as highly agile pulse profiles, effects from antenna diagrams and scans or movements along trajectories with six degrees of freedom (6-DOF).

Simulate angle-of-arrival (AoA)

Multichannel setups

The R&S®pulse sequencer radar simulation software allows users to easily and intuitively create scenarios for simulating angle of arrival (AoA). Together with multiple coupled R&S®SMW200A vector signal generators, the solution allows quick and thorough performance characterization for all types of direction finding equipment, such as those using amplitude comparison, interferometry or time difference of arrival (TDOA).

DFS signal generation

Create standard compliant dynamic frequency selection radar profiles

R&S®Pulse Sequencer dynamic frequency selection (DFS) software with keycode option for Rohde & Schwarz signal generators was specially developed to generate radar signals as specified by national standards bodies in Europe (ETSI), USA (FCC), Japan (MIC), Korea and China.
