1. Radar Profiles Type

Radar Profiles Type

Choices: DFS | DAA

Default: DFS

Coupling: When DAA is selected, the Standards of Radar Profiles will be coupled to ETSI 102 754.

Select the type of the radar profiles.

DFS is the radar profiles for Dynamic Frequency Selection.

DAA is the radar profiles for Detect And Avoid.

Depending on your selection, either DFS or DAA appears as a node in the tree view with its selected radar standard as a sub node.

2. Basic

Sequence Name

Enter the name of the sequence file to be played on the signal generator.

Comment

Enter an alpha-numeric comment up to 32 characters in length. The comment resides in the file header and can include spaces and special characters.

Sample Rate

Range:the minimum value is 10 MHz and the maximum value depends on the supported maximum sample rate of the connected instrument.

Default: 10 MHz

Couplings:

  1. If the Standards of Radar Profiles or Radar Type is switched, the sample rate will be automatically reset to a value that is appropriate for that radar signal. For FCC type 5 and Japan MIC chirp, it’s 100 MHz; For FCC type 6 and Japan MIC hopping, it’s the maximum sample rate of the connected instrument.For the rest radar types, the sample rate is 10 MHz.
  2. The Sample Clock under Instrument node is read-only, and its value depends on the Sample Rate.

Enter the sample rate used to generate the waveform.

Seed

Range: -1 to 2147483647

Default: 99991

Couplings: With the same seed, the Random Number Generator (RNG) generates the same random values. When the seed is -1, System Time will be used as the seed of RNG. Then the generated trial list will be different at different time.

The seed is the initial state of a Random Number Generator (RNG), which is used to generate a random value within the predefined range for parameters such as pulse width, PRI, or number of pulses for each trial , as shown in the table below (FCC radar types).

FCC Trials

FCC allows mixed trials of different Radar Types by adding or removing FCC profiles in the trial list setting table. Note that only type 0 ~ type 4 signals can be mixed.

A set of parameters are provided for each FCC profile to allow a configuration. These parameters can also be set by accessing the corresponding FCC node on the left panel of the UI. In addition to these parameters, the node also offers more detailed information about the profile.

If a radar type, which is not allowed for mixture, is selected, a window will be displayed to let you choose what to do. For example:

You can choose to remove all other type of signals except the selected one by clicking “OK”, or to not change the selected radar type by clicking “Cancel”.
