QinetiQ
Great Malvern, Malvern WR14, UK
Project Description & Role Summary: To support the Radar Cross Section Capability, QinetiQ is developing two new radar cross section (RCS) measurement radar systems, an analysis suite and associated ancillary support systems. The QinetiQ RCS Capability undertakes the measurement of MOD assets: ships, aircraft etc., as part of T3E (Test, Trials, Training and Evaluation) a long-term core business for the MOD. One radar system is to be fitted into a helicopter-mounted pod; the other will be a transportable ground based system. This is a project that is providing a step change in the performance of an existing system in terms of extended frequency coverage, measurement capability, antenna design, dynamic range and sensitivity. It is a high precision radar requiring extensive calibration techniques. The new radars are being designed using the latest model based systems engineering techniques. This is a great opportunity for the right Microwave/RF Engineer to be a key part of the...
