Increasing requirements to modern synthetic-aperture radars leads to a complication of both the radars themselves and the tools for monitoring of the radar parameters. Reflected-signal simulator is designed to check through characteristics of such radars at various stages of the life cycle, starting with the development of components and including regular operation, using the same methods. We describe a device for converting the sounding signals of synthetic-aperture radars to simulated reflected ones. A distinctive feature of the presented device is the ability to simulate point and spatially distributed targets and an arbitrary target environment (a set of observation conditions) for test, calibration, and validation.
