The MASS-15 Continuous Echo Simulation Excitation System of Radio Altimeter is a specialized testing equipment designed to support the performance verification, calibration, and development of radio altimeters. It focuses on generating stable, continuous echo signals that accurately replicate real-world altitude-related signal environments—including varying echo amplitudes, frequency characteristics, and delay parameters corresponding to different flight altitudes and terrain conditions. By providing these realistic simulated excitation signals, the system enables radio altimeters to operate under controlled laboratory conditions, allowing engineers to test key functions such as height measurement accuracy, continuous tracking stability, and anti-interference capability. Its reliable continuous echo simulation function not only replaces the need for complex and costly field tests but also ensures consistent, repeatable test results, making it an essential tool for ensuring the reliability and performance of radio altimeters in practical aviation applications.

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 cruise missiles and 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.

The MY-3001D radio altimeter incorporates two key technologies: a linear modulation coefficient technology that adapts to altitude changes and a narrow-band receiving technology for echo signals, both of which effectively enhance the product’s resistance to active interference. It also adopts coherent local oscillator mixing, granting it superior performance in resisting co-frequency asynchronous interference, and employs echo signal spectrum front-edge detection technology to boost tracking accuracy. In terms of design, the altimeter follows the principles of serialization, standardization, and modularization. While retaining its closed-loop tracking system, it further integrates digital control technology, microwave integration technology, and hybrid integration technology to achieve product modularization. Additionally, it is equipped with a silent function, which further improves the product’s anti-interference capability. This radio altimeter is applicable to cruise missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for measuring the altitude relative to the sea surface or the ground.

The MASS-06 Echo Signal Simulation Excitation System, hereinafter referred to as the "Simulation Excitation Source", is a dedicated equipment designed for the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation of radio altimeters. It serves as a key component in replicating real-world echo signal scenarios, providing targeted excitation signals that enable the radio altimeter to operate under simulated physical conditions—effectively bridging the gap between theoretical testing and actual operational environments to validate the altimeter’s performance, responsiveness, and reliability.
