Altimeter Transceiver Assembly

The MAST-11 Equivalent Altitude Simulator of Radio Altimeter is a specialized aerospace testing tool engineered to replicate realistic altitude signals for radio altimeter systems. It generates precise, adjustable equivalent altitude data—mimicking terrain-relative height scenarios—to validate the performance, accuracy, and fault response of on-board radio altimeters during pre-flight testing, maintenance, or system calibration. Compliant with stringent aerospace standards, it ensures reliable simulation of low-to-high altitude ranges, supports interference-free signal output, and integrates easily with aircraft test setups, making it essential for verifying radio altimeter functionality across commercial and special aircraft platforms.

The MDG-200 radio height-setting device operates in the C-band and adopts a monopulse working system. Its sensitive component is of the heterodyne type, and the circulator at the antenna terminal uses a transceiver common-mode configuration. Prior to missile launch, the height-setting device needs to be powered on; it then performs a self-check and completes height setting via the communication interface. After the missile is launched, the radio frequency (RF) module is activated, and a gate is set based on the preconfigured height. When the preset height is reached, the device outputs height-setting command information and telemetry data. The MDG-200 height-setting device features mature technology: the monopulse design enhances the altimeter’s height measurement performance, and the device also has the characteristic of not being affected by the carrier’s speed.

Developed to meet the requirements of electronic countermeasures and terminal penetration, the MY-18A and MY-19A electronic countermeasure radio altimeters incorporate a range of advanced technologies including frequency agility, radiated power control, beam control, anti-burnout, anti-blocking, and echo frequency-domain processing—endowing them with excellent anti-jamming performance. Meanwhile, these altimeters also integrate a sea state identification function, which leverages information such as echo spectrum broadening, Doppler frequency, and altitude under different sea conditions to achieve accurate sea state recognition.

The MY-3001 series altimeters include models such as MY-3001A, MY-3001B, MY-3001C, MY-3001D, MY-3001E, MY-3001F, MY-3001G, and MY-3001H; as China’s smallest and lightest full-function radio altimeters that meet aerospace standards, they serve as key components for longitudinal height channel control and can be widely used in UAVs to measure altitude relative to the sea or ground. The MY-3001 series altimeters adopt linear modulation coefficient technology adaptive to altitude changes and echo signal narrow-band receiving technology to enhance the product’s resistance to active interference, use coherent local oscillator mixing to achieve superior performance in resisting co-frequency asynchronous interference, employ echo signal spectrum front detection technology to improve tracking accuracy, and follow the three design principles of serialization, standardization, and modularization to enable high-speed production; additionally, built on a closed-loop tracking system, they integrate digital control technology, microwave integration technology, and hybrid integration technology to realize ultra-miniaturization of the product. As China’s first full-function radio altimeter, the series is known as the "high-speed rail ticket" in the industry.
