This webinar will discuss some of the key research, development, test & evaluation (RDT&E) challenges when testing and evaluating deceptive jammers or digital RF memories (DRFM). It will present a general overview of DRFMs as well as a detailed evaluation of DRFMs at the system, RF subsystem and digital subsystem levels. 

At the systems level, the session will discuss key measurement and simulation requirements related to direction finding and deception techniques. At the RF subsystem level, we will cover spurious measurements, characterization of dynamic range, receiver sensitivity, LO phase noise, leakage, stability and antenna radiation pattern measurements. 

The session will conclude with an overview of the complete SDRF test solution and a Q&A session.

In this webinar, you will learn more about: 

• DRFM technology and architecture
• DRFM system level tests / test requirements
• Test systems for AoA simulation and calibration
• Radar/EW scenario generation & pulse generation
• Deception techniques analysis
