Product Description

Beam control unit is state of art L-Band digitally controlled passive Beam forming unit designed for E- Scan CIT system for Supersonic fighter A/C, Rotary wing H/C & Ship application. BCU provides faster Electronic beam Scanning for CIT-Interrogator to identify target rapidly. BCU is designed to control RF phase of 6 element Interrogator Antenna Array simultaneously, performs monopulse operation for Aziumuth angle estimation and applies f ixed amplitude distribution among the 6 channels for greater sidelobe Control.
