Description:
The VPW 3490 is a highly reliable pulsed microwave
transmitter that is suitable for the high vibration, shock and
wide temperature variation environments that are typically
encountered in supersonic aircraft pod mounted threat
simulation equipment. This transmitter is able to operate
five separate magnetrons (one at a time). Magnetron output
frequency and RF pulsewidth are controlled via digital
inputs. The pulsewidth, PRF, and RF frequency may be
changed “on the fly” from a location remote to the
transmitter. The transmitter is sized to fit the confines of a
standard airborne pod.
