Abstract:Aimed at the problem that it was very difficult to locate fault position of signal processing of a certain type of passive phased array radar, this seriously affects operational ability of the radar, the fault phenomenon was classified, and fault matching file library was created in accord with class, a suit of software was designed to use the accurate signal pattern string matching algorithm in the paper. The function of accurate location of fault was achieved in this software, the technical support was provided for rapidly and timely eliminating fault, the correctness of software was validated in the practical application.
