            Abstract : 
A special detection device, or an E-Pod is generally installed in a plane to perform the target detection and track mission. Aimed at designing a reliable E-Pod, This paper adopts the SolidWorks to build a physical model of E-Pod, and analyze its strength, stiffness and frequency to assess the feasibility for further improvement. Then this paper offers a way of optimization to ensure the reliability of the E-Pod.
