Description

Kratos-CTI (CTI) Wideband Digital RF Memory a very advanced radar test and evaluation capability.
(DRFM) offers sampling at up to 2.2 GHz with 10-bit The enhanced bandwidth and sampling resolution
resolution for the A/D converter and 12-bit resolution now also enables other applications of technology
for the D/A converter. such as digital receivers.

DRFMs are the main building blocks of Electronic
Counter Measure (ECM) systems, hardware-in-the-
loop Radar Target Generators and ECM/Target sim-
ulators. The transmitted radar signals are delayed,
modulated, and Doppler shifted to create false tar-
gets of very high fidelity.
This provides the DoD and defense contractors with
This new technology will be used by the world lead-
ers in DRFM based simulators, where high fidelity,
multi-scatter returns with low spurious is required.
Kratos-CTI can also custom tailor designs to meet
your specific applications. Contact the factory to dis-
cuss your special requirements.
