NI AWR VSS for Radar Overview
Radar Prototyping
Detailed behavioral modeling of RF and Signal processing in a Radar system; 3D Antenna patterns derived from synthesis or measurement.
NI AWR Radar Prototyping app note
MIMO & Phased Array Antenna System Development
Require phase synchronization for direction finding and target simulation, wide instantaneous bandwidths for fast sweeps and less missed signals, and high dynamic range for recognizing small signals in the presence of saturating signals.
- Add FPGA based Digital Signal Processor for Real-time Spectrum Analysis
- Add a RAID Array for Record & Playback of Terabytes of data
