Giga-tronics and D-TA Systems have announced the sale of advanced Electronic Warfare signal simulation equipment to a major U.S. research institute. The ability to accurately model the electromagnetic threat environment and key emitter characteristics is the key to testing and evaluating state-of-the-art electronic warfare equipment. In partnership with D-TA Systems, Giga-tronics offers a broadband, wide instantaneous bandwidth solution through a powerful combination of the GT-ASGM18A Advanced Signal Generator and D-TA’s System-95 IF processing system. System-95 features the DTA-9500 ultra-wideband digital IF transceiver and the DTA-5000 RAID Server.
The D-TA and Giga-tronics partnership has created a paradigm shift in EW threat simulation. A real-life RF threat environment can be a readily created by playing out pre-recorded and/or simulated data providing dramatic cost and time savings.
The Giga-tronics GT-ASGM18A Advanced Signal Generator Blade combines an agile, low-noise, phase-coherent local oscillator with a state-of-the-art millimeter-wave up-converter to generate high spectral purity microwave signals over the 100 MHz to 18 GHz frequency range.
Key Features:
- Frequency range – 18 GHz
- Frequency switching – real time
- Amplitude range – excellent
- Up-converting – wide instantaneous bandwidth
- Modulation – AWG support
- Coherence – full band
- Multi-channel – phase coherent
- control – PDW, BCD parallel
