Our lab facilities assist our engineers and scientists during design and test, and allow us to develop everything from large-scale radars, to complex communication systems, and microscopic biological agent detectors.

Anechoic Chambers

SRC's anechoic chambers provide controlled environments for accurate measurement and calibration of antenna patterns, radar performance verification, and EMI emission and susceptibility characterization. These chambers are fully equipped to support characterization of advanced systems for radar, communication and EW applications.

• Far-field anechoic chambers Our Far-field chambers support testing from UHF through Ku band and are readily extendable up through millimeter waves.
• Spherical near-field anechoic chamber This 5m radius spherical Near-field measurement system characterizes a wide variety of antenna systems. It was designed to meet the accuracy, digital control interface, power, weight and cooling requirements for modern active phased array radar systems.
• Electromagnetic interference chamber Our EMI chamber supports a full range of pre-certification testing that addresses the U.S. Military Standard for electromagnetic compatibility, including radiated and conducted susceptibility and emissions.

Laboratories

We have more than 42,000 square feet of laboratory facilities dedicated to sophisticated research and development on advanced technologies. These flexible spaces are easily reconfigured to support interdisciplinary collaboration and testing to meet the diverse research and development needs of our engineers, scientists and customers.

• Engineering lab space We have nearly 19,000 square feet of radio frequency, communications and general-use lab space to support development; prototype system build; integration and testing; and limited production.
• Environmental/temperature testing chambers
• High bay integration areas We offer three high-bay integration areas totaling nearly 4,500 sq. ft.
• High-performance computing labs
• Prototype machine shop
• RF screen rooms
• Rooftop test decks There are five rooftop test decks to support multiple test scenarios with a variety of equipment including a 2.75m radome and 3-axis positioner.
