The invention discloses a
radar echo signal simulator suitable for an onboard
radar system. The
radar echo signal simulator suitable for the onboard radar
system comprises a parameter setting module (10), a data generation module (20), a
data scheduling module (30), a digital to analogue (D / A) conversion module (40), a
frequency mixing module (50) and an
intermediate frequency oscillator (60). The radar
echo signal simulator suitable for the onboard radar
system combines an application scene model with radar parameters and antenna parameters, uses a
clutter statistics distributing model and a power spectrum model to simulate a
clutter series corresponding to a needed background
topography, uses a
mesh generation method to generate a
clutter echo
signal, and then uses position information of a needed sensitive area to generate a related target echo wave, and finally fuses the clutter
signal with a
target signal so as to generate a radar echo wave which conforms to
test requirements and send the radar echo wave back to a test radar. The radar echo
signal simulator suitable for the onboard radar system can be used in multiple links of research and development,
production testing, performance detection and the like of a radar device on an airship, reduces frequency of outfield experiments to the utmost, saves experiment cost, and shortens a research period.
