Test Solutions for the Aerospace Industry

As greater reliance is placed on electronics, motors and electrical systems fitted to aircraft the need to test and certify these is becoming ever more critical.

Power systems testing requires the likes of programmable AC / DC power supplies to emulate the variable voltage and frequency of the on-board power systems in accordance with standards such as RTCA-DO 160G, MIL STD 704F and Airbus ABD0100.

EMC testing of aircraft and their subsystems is paramount. MDL Technologies is able to provide test equipment and test facilities (such as anechoic chambers) to carry out conducted / radiated immunity and conducted / radiated emissions testing. This necessitates the use of broadband RF amplifiers matched to their respective test antennas for immunity testing and accurate FFT based receivers for emissions testing.

Antenna arrays on aircraft are also becoming more complex due to increased levels of communication. MDL Technologies provides Near Field / Far Field & Compact Range Test Systems to provide accurate antenna pattern and gain data up to 300 GHz. In addition we can also provide RCS (Radar Cross Section) test systems.
