W-Band Pulsed Radar Transceiver •
HXI has delivered several W-Band prototypes and pre-production units for helicopter landing systems. The prototypes were realized very quickly using HXI catalog components.
•
This program and other highly integrated assemblies required highly interactive engineering development efforts with the customer to assure that all system level requirements were met.

Radar and Sensor Capabilities •
HXI has supported numerous radar efforts with components, transceivers (Radar Front Ends or RFEs) and related hardware.
•
Applications have included simple industrial sensors all the way up to sophisticated military grade radars.
•
Linearization is an important factor in high end radars and HXI has developed a closed loop linearizer for wideband applications requiring the best linearity possible. For narrower bandwidths, a Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) approach is used.
