Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Technical role involving the development, verification, and evaluation of radar system software and hardware. Excludes design tasks, specializing in algorithm implementation and performance testing.
Description
Radar development engineers are technical professionals specializing in the implementation of signal processing algorithms and hardware verification in radar (Radio Detection and Ranging) systems. They conduct simulations using MATLAB or Simulink, algorithm implementation in C/C++ or Python, verification of real-time processing using FPGA, etc., and performance tests or field tests using various measurement and evaluation tools. Based on specifications from the design stage, they analyze performance evaluation results and propose system optimizations or improvements. Through collaboration in teams and coordination with other departments, they support the practical implementation of high-performance radar systems.
Future Outlook
Demand for high-performance radars is increasing in fields such as autonomous driving, unmanned aircraft, and defense. Development of next-generation radar technologies combining AI and machine learning is advancing, and demand for specialized engineers is expected to remain steady.
