Development and test of an antenna simulator for transmitter-receiver radio P/PRC525

The work reported in this paper, resulted from a joint cooperation between the Faculty of Engineering (I.S.T) of the Technical University of Lisbon, Portugal, the Portuguese Army and an private company, EID, which is active in the development of electronic devices for special applications. The rationale behind this Project is the need to implement an electronic device for the simulation of antennas used in the military tactical radios P/PRC525 [2] in different operation scenarios.
