Radar Test System

The ME7220A Radar Test System (RTS) accurately and repeatedly characterizes 76-77GHz automotive radar modules and systems, in a confined and controlled environment, to ensure quality and optimum functionality.

The RTS is designed to work with current and future generations of automotive radar being deployed as part of the emerging infrastructure for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and the overall Telematics market including Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) radar and collision warning, or avoidance radar. The test system provides a simulated radar target response with one of two set target ranges with an adjustable target Radar Cross Section (RCS). The signal response can be Doppler shifted to simulate the speed of a moving target. The system also allows the measurement of the power characteristics or Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) of the transmitted radar signal as well as its spectral characteristics (bandwidth, spurious signals, AM/FM Noise, etc.).
