The Synthetic Multifunction Adaptable Reconfigurable Test Environment (SMART^E) includes hardware, software, test practices, and support; SMART^E meets the requirements for testing radar, satellite payloads, and T/R (transmit/receive) modules and subsystems for phased-array radar antennas. In this fifth generation, the Aeroflex proprietary synthetic chassis has evolved to accommodate commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) LXI modules; it now supports multiple vendors and multiple industry-standard platforms (including LXI, PXI, cPCI, and GPIB).
SMART^E works with industry-standard software and also features a test library with built-in test-personality customization via user-settable/exposed parameters. It embodies system-level calibration, verification, diagnostics, and test practices without the need to remove and calibrate each individual synthetic module or each separate subsystem.
