Frequency-modulation continuous-wave (FM CW) real time RADALT tester

Source

Source summary

Develop a bench tester for an FMCW radio altimeter that can represent changing altitude, pitch, roll and selected terrain. The source contrasts this with fixed-delay testing and requests simulated terrain returns to verify the altimeter's displayed height across conditions. This is test equipment, not a navigation deployment.
