Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of radar radiation type semi-physical simulation test, and in particular to a radio frequency semi-physical simulation turntable switching positioning device and an operation method. Background Art

[0002] RF semi-physical simulation has been widely used in the field of electronic information equipment simulation due to its advantages of good repeatability, large sample size, and low organizational cost. RF semi-physical simulation systems are generally composed of simulation master control, signal simulator, antenna array, turntable, etc. Among them, the turntable is mainly used to carry missile-borne or airborne equipment, receive platform attitude data solved by the RF semi-physical simulation system, simulate the motion attitude of the equipment in actual flight, and cooperate with the antenna array calibration equipment to complete the antenna array calibration work to ensure the angular simulation accuracy of the equipment semi-physical simulation system.

[0003] Most existing RF semi-physical simulation systems are designed with a simulation turntable, which is fixed in the turntable foundation and is used to carry out testing tasks for typical equipment models. However, in order to meet the assessment requirements for general equipment, the semi-physical simulation system has both large-caliber, low-mobility equipment and small-caliber, high-mobility equipment in its test objects. It is technically difficult to achieve both high-dynamic small loads and low-dynamic large loads with the same simulation turntable. For the test object, the three-axis simulation turntables with different performances are switched by mechanical lifting. After the simulation turntable is switched, the installation position of the turntable needs to be calibrated with the help of special equipment such as a total station. The calibration cycle is generally more than one week. If the installation position of the simulation turntable does not meet the simulation test conditions after calibration, the turntable needs to be re-lifted and the installation position of the turntable needs to be adjusted. Since the weight of the semi-physical simulation turntable is measured in tons, the switching process requires the use of large-scale lifting equipment, special transfer equipment, etc. The switching process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and consumes a lot of human resources. In addition, the lifting method cannot effectively guarantee the installation accuracy of the turntable. After calibration, the installation position of the turntable needs to be adjusted many times, resulting in a long installation and positioning time period for the simulation turntable.

[0004] In view of the above reasons, a radio frequency semi-physical simulation turntable switching positioning device and an operating method are developed. Summary of the invention
