Modeling Multi-function Phased Array Systems Course

Modeling Multi-function Phased Array Systems

We will demonstrate modeling and simulation capabilities that can be used to shorten design cycles for complex radar and EW applications. Using a multi-function X-band system as an example, we will demonstrate how each component can be designed and integrated into a more complete system simulation. The tutorial will include a wide variety of advanced modeling and simulation capabilities that can be put to use to reduce risks associated with large and complex system designs. We will also include techniques to increase the level of model fidelity in each area of the design.

The related topics span from the antenna to the processing algorithms, including the scenario and environment around the system. Specific topics and examples will include:

• Multi-function phased array design
• Efficient array synthesis using optimization techniques
• MIMO radar system modeling
• Electronic signal analysis of interference sources
• RF propagation in complex environments
• Multi-domain simulation to increase radar RF model fidelity
• Closed-loop simulation between a radar model and a radar scheduler
• Multi-target tracking 
• Model-based design for an MTI radar
