Model 9611 – RCS/ISAR Processor
The RCS/ISAR Processor converts the I- and Q-channel
target echo signals coming from the basic radar
receiving section into digital signals which are then
processed using complex calculation algorithms to
obtain RCS measurements and ISAR images. The
RCS/ISAR Processor consists of a high-quality desktop
computer equipped with the necessary interface cards
and RCS measurement/ISAR imagery software. The
RCS/ISAR Processor can also be used as a synthetic-
aperture radar (SAR) processing unit by installing the
Lab-Volt Synthetic Aperture Radar (LVSAR) software.
Model 9691 – Monitor
The Model 9691 Monitor is used as the display for the
RCS and ISAR Measurement Training System,
Model 8096-5, and the SAR Training System,
Model 8096-8. It is designed to be connected to the
video output of the RCS/ISAR Processor, Model 9611.

Model 9690-D – Connection Leads and
Accessories
The Model 9690-D Connection Leads and Accessories
contains a low-RCS target support with a storage stand,
an adjustable base and long interconnection cables for
the Rotating-Antenna Pedestal, additional BNC and
SMA cables, a tripod with an antenna mast, a large horn
antenna, a small metal plate target, a small metal plate
target with radar absorbing material (RAM) on one side,
and a reflective aircraft target (777-Boeing scale model).

ANTENNA TRAINER
Model 9612 – Phased Array Antenna
The Phased Array Antenna is specifically designed to be
used with the Lab-Volt Radar Training System. It allows
an horizontal sector to be scanned (azimuthal scanning)
without any antenna motion. The antenna can be tilted
90
E
to demonstrate elevation scanning. The Phased
Array Antenna consists of a microwave switch coupled
to a Rotman lens and microstrip tapered slot array
antennas. A built-in circulator allows simultaneous
transmission and reception.
