Offering the Fastest Path from Radar/EW
Design to Verication and Test
The W1905 Radar Model Library is a simulation reference library for designing and testing Radar
and electronic warfare (EW) systems. It is available as an option to the SystemVue system-level
modeling software.
Modern Radar and EW systems are incredibly complex. They employ complicated architectures
with state-of-the-art technology from multiple engineering domains and are installed on a
diverse array of platforms such as airplanes, satellites and ships to track, detect and identify a
variety of potential targets. Additionally, they must work in a host of operational environments
that can include interference, jamming/deception clutters and different target radar cross sections.
To save development time and reduce cost, the SystemVue Radar Library provides 92 highlyparameterized simulation blocks and 93 higher-level reference design workspaces to create
working Radar/EW system scenarios. These scenarios can include Radar and EW signal
generation and processing, as well as environmental effects like clutter, jamming, interference, targets, and simulated platform and target hardware specific parameters. The ability to
simulate not only a Radar/EW system concept, but the full deployment environment enables
unprecedented development speed and provides rapid prototyping capabilities for any Radar/
EW system development.
While the W1905 Radar Model Library is primarily structured for direct modeling and simulation
of a conceptual Radar/EW system and its operational environment, it also can be used to
design, verify and test development hardware. The W1905 block set and its example workspaces serve as algorithmic and architectural reference designs to verify Radar/EW performances
under different signal conditions and environment scenarios. By accounting for a diverse set
of environmental effects, while maintaining an open modeling environment (.m, C++, VHDL,
test equipment), the Radar system designer can explore Radar/EW architectures with high
confidence, rapidly test and prototype development hardware, and simulate operational results
in multiple concept operations, without requiring expensive outdoor range testing or hardware
simulators.
