Range-Doppler Target Generators
ATG9100
The ATG-9100 is an example of a laboratory-quality instrument that will simulate complex target motion. Microwave signals from the speed camera enter the instrument through an integrated antenna which is then downconverted and digitized. Target simulation data is added to the digitized signal to provide range and Doppler information. The modified digital data is then converted back to an IF and upconverted to the original microwave frequency of the speed camera and radiated back through the antenna. Since the ATG-9100 can be phase-locked to an external 10 MHz reference standard, this instrument is suitable for use as a calibration standard for speed cameras.

PXI RF Relay Module
PXI RF Relay Modules offer single-pole double-throw (SPDT) and terminated switches. SPDT models include excellent insertion loss, voltage standing-wave ratio (VSWR), and isolation parameters to minimize signal degradation. You can use the onboard relay-count-tracking feature on these models to predict relay lifetime and reduce unexpected system downtime. SPDT models are also well-suited for passing high-order harmonics from PXI RF Signal Upconverter Modules or routing multiple sources to PXI RF Signal Downconverter Modules. Terminated switch models feature front-mounted SMA connectors and high-performance solid-state relays for fast switching time and unlimited mechanical lifetime. These models also include termination on every COM line and channel, which helps minimize reflections of the RF signal and protect your instruments.

I/Q Upconverters/Transmitters
In-phase quadrature (I/Q) upconverters integrate an I/Q mixer, RF amplifier, 90° hybrid, and an LO buffer in one package. These devices are used in transmitter applications to upconvert intermediate frequency (IF) to a desired radio frequency (RF) while reducing the need for filtering unwanted sideband.
