What are Radio Altimeter Test Sets?
Radio Altimeter Test Sets are equipment that test/simulate the radio altimeters that are used aboard modern aircraft. A radio altimeter (RADALT) is typically used to conduct vertical range or altitude measurements directly above a given terrain present beneath an aircraft. Radio altimeter test sets are capable of performing tests from the Tx/Rx antennas to the indicator in the cockpit, which allows the aircraft operators to simulate active flight conditions and detect faulty components.
Radio altimeter test systems are extremely useful as they allow to test of various RADALT aspects, such as antenna and radio performance, over a multitude of expected flight conditions while being on the ground.
