Abstract |
A radar altimeter which measures the distance using radio wave developed by domestic technology has been applied to various missiles. It is used also for calculating the error of integrated navigation technique. There are a couple of methods to reduce the error but in this paper, we proposed to utilize existing C-band radar altimeter main body with frequency conversion. We designed and manufactured the frequency converter and Ku-band antenna to accomplish this goal. From the test results of products' function and performance, we could expect the possibility of applying this method to enhance the missiles' integrated performance. |
