Eastern OptX 1100 series creates ‘moving target’ radar scenarios

Eastern OptX is showing a radar target scenario generator designed to put a radar test range on your test bench. The Eastern OptX Series 1100 Radar Target Simulator is a true propagation path replicator. The Series 1100 receives the signal transmitted from a radar system and adds the round-trip propagation delay associated with the target distance. That signal is then output to the radar receiver.
