MVG (Microwave Vision Group) has announced that they have received a 9€ million contract from PIT-RADWAR S.A. for the purchase of a turnkey, state of the art, antenna test facility in Poland. This new operation will include two large anechoic chambers, one with a Planar Near field scanner and the other with a compact antenna test range reflector and a highly accurate radar antenna positioner. Both chambers will be delivered as turnkey installations including RF instrumentation, computers and control software. The project, secured in cooperation with ORBIT/FR Europe GmbH and MVG’s Polish partner Tespol, is expected to span 18 months and will improve PIT-RADWAR’s capability to measure the next generation of radar antennas at their test and measurement facility in Kobyłka, Poland.
MVG worked very closely with the PIT-RADWAR project team to understand their exact requirements, then MVG’s engineering team designed a facility which perfectly suits their test and measurement needs. The project scope includes a setup of independent anechoic chambers - one of the largest in Europe - complete with measurement equipment. The chambers will allow enable PIT-RADWAR to test and measure a wide variety of antennas and take electromagnetic compatibility measurements of large-size objects, for example, complete radars and tanks.
This contract contributes to the increase in MVG’s order book in the first quarter which saw orders rise by 69%.
