MASS-03 Radio Altimeter Continuous Echo Signal Simulator

The MASS-03 Radio Altimeter Continuous Echo Signal Simulator is a specialized testing device designed to generate stable, continuous echo signals that replicate real-world altitude-related signal environments for radio altimeters. Tailored to support the development, calibration, and performance verification of radio altimeters, it accurately simulates various echo signal characteristics (such as amplitude, frequency, and delay) corresponding to different altitude scenarios, enabling users to test critical functions of radio altimeters—including height measurement accuracy, tracking stability, and anti-interference performance—under controlled laboratory conditions. By providing reliable, repeatable continuous echo signals, the simulator eliminates the need for costly and complex field tests, streamlining the testing process while ensuring radio altimeters meet design specifications for accuracy, stability, and robustness in practical operation.

MDG-400 Radio Altimeter

The MDG-400 radio altimeter operates in the C-band and adopts a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) working system, with its antenna utilizing a transmit-receive separation mode. Prior to missile launch, the altimeter (serving as the height-fixing device) is powered on, and it undergoes self-check and height presetting via the communication interface. After the missile is launched, the radio frequency (RF) module is activated, and frequency variation parameters are set based on the preset height. When the preset height is achieved, the altimeter outputs height-fixing command information and telemetry data. The MDG-400 altimeter features mature technology; its adoption of frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) technology endows it with the advantages of compact size and a large height measurement range.

Subminiature Radio Altimeter MY-70B

The MY-70B radio altimeter is a solid-state C-band radio altimeter system based on frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) technology, characterized by constant beat frequency and closed-loop tracking measurement. It maintains a constant beat frequency by servo-controlling the slope of the sawtooth wave that modulates the microwave oscillator, thereby achieving automatic altitude tracking. Under the condition of constant beat frequency, the measured altitude is proportional to the modulation period; thus, altitude information can be obtained by measuring the modulation period, and the system then converts this information into an altitude voltage for output. The MY-70B altimeter possesses excellent anti-jamming performance, owing to its adoption of a narrow-band receiver (with gain adjustable according to altitude) as well as technologies including equivalent spectrum front-end detection, weighted frequency identification, and automatic servo tracking. In terms of component design, its high-frequency components implement microwave integration while its low-frequency components adopt a modular design—these measures collectively enhance the product’s reliability, anti-interference capability, and electromagnetic compatibility. Additionally, the MY-70B altimeter uses RS422 and CAN protocols for its interface output, which further improves the reliability of the product’s data transmission.
