Cubic's
standard High Density Simulation System (HIDESS) is the
most technologically advanced simulation system available
for the complete electronic warfare (EW) facility. The HIDESS
product line accurately tests advanced radar warning receivers
and other EW equipment by providing realistic threat signals
and scenarios.
The
simulators can emulate standard radar, pulse Doppler (including
ICW) or continuous waveform signals. The actual characteristics
of both the radar signal and operational environment are
preserved to provide the highest level of fidelity and realism
possible.
The
system's unique design provides a clear replication of the
signals with minimal RF noise output. Individual time clocks
for each signal preserves the asynchronous nature of the
threat environment - in real time - to ensure the highest
level of realism possible.
The
standard HIDESS produces up to 64 independent signals and
has four RF channels - two covering the 0.5 to 18.0 GHz
frequency range and two covering the 2.0 to 18.0 GHz frequency
range. This frequency coverage may be lowered to as low
as 50 MHz and raised to above the 40 GHz range.
The
system can be operated as a single 64 signal simulator or
as two 32 signal simulators. It provides a zero pulse drop
out capability for one signal in each RF channel.
The
complete equipment, including the RF sources, is housed
within two 6.5 feet (38U rack space) high floor standing
racks. It is controlled by a Pentium-based personal computer
system controller running Escape2000 simulation control
software.
