To meet the need of customers, we have launched our high-frequency Altimeter Optical Delay Line (ALT ODL) to provide a high-performance solution for testing and calibration of radar altimeter systems. The ALT ODL is part of the RFOptic’s family of Optical Delay lines.

RFOptic’s ALT ODL unit is a compact solution, which provides superb signal performance and altitude simulation accuracy with an ultra-silent operation.

The ALT ODL can be configured to emulate a single altitude or up to 4,096 altitude steps.

The Altimeter ODL offers very high accuracy up to 0.3ns for altitude steps under 6ft and > 0.1% above. The maximum altitude can reach 100,000 feet or 30Km in one enclosure.

For more information, please visit the RADAR Altimeter Test webpage and download the RADAR Altimeter data sheet.
