Abstract

Disclosed is a compact integrated apparatus of an interferometric radar altimeter (IRA) and a radar altimeter (RA) capable of performing individual missions by altitude, which includes: a plurality of antennas; a signal processing control unit selecting an RA mode at a low altitude and selecting an IRA mode at a high altitude based on a mode threshold and selecting an FMCW waveform at the low altitude and selecting an FM pulse waveform at the high altitude based on a waveform threshold; and a transceiving unit transmitting a signal by a first antenna positioned at an outermost portion among the plurality of antennas and receiving a signal by an nth antenna positioned at another outermost portion among the plurality of antennas in the RA mode and transmitting a signal through the first antenna and receiving signals through the plurality of antennas in the IRA mode.
