Abstract :
Our aim is to develop a radar tester equipment for commercial and military services. The task is to create one (or more) target or clutter on the radar screen with given distance, velocity and fluctuation. This equipment is placed within few hundred meters from the radar, so it is able to analyze the whole radar system from the antenna, via microwave hardware elements, to the DSP unit. We have some experience in this field, included in the references but also briefly introduced in this paper.
