PN9002 - Pulse-to-Pulse Stability Test System

The PN9002 is a unique test system for the design and manufacturing of radar systems. Fast, compact and fully automated, the PN9002 is a stand-alone system, ideal for radar stability measurements. It integrates all the needed hardware and software to test a two port module for amplitude and phase stability. The PN9002 acts as a "micro-Radar" providing pulsed signals to the UUT and analyzing the received pulses. It easily covers 400 MHz to 18 GHz in a scaleable concept that can be extended in the future. The heritage from the PN9000 product line guarantees the lowest noise floor available. The dynamic range reaches an amazing -79 dBc typical (-76dBc guaranteed) in stability integration over the bandwidth of the "equivalent receiver".

PN9002 Pulse-to-Pulse Stability Test System Features:

  • Superior accuracy at a fraction of the cost of in-house systems.
  • Detect smaller targets at farther distances, with smaller return echoing.
  • Improvement over previous measurement methods using power meters and phase noise analyzers.
  • Enables measurements of amplitude and phase stability of RADAR pulses with an unprecedented dynamic range.

Time Domain Measurements:

  • Demodulates all Phase and AM variations.
  • Works like a Phase and Amplitude oscilloscope.
  • Computes Phase and AM RMS value, peak to peak, drift, etc... for either pulse to pulse or intra-pulse analysis.

Frequency Domain Measurements:

  • On time domain.
  • Adds a FFT analyzer and computes the cancellation factor and stability into user defined Doppler filters.
  • Control over the integration bandwidth.

User interface:

  • Full control of the system, pulse analysis and generation.
  • Open/Save measurements, export to spreadsheet.
  • Automated measurement procedures.
