Systems Took Kit (STK) - Has anybody worked on this program ?

[Signalian]

Systems took kit was previously called Satellite tool kit. Anyone has experience using STK?

I have a few questions to ask.

I worked on it many years ago but then uninstalled it because my computer was cheap. I doubt I can answer any advanced questions but I remember there being really nice tutorials by STK themselves. Have you tried looking at those for answers?

Yes i did. Still i will ask you if need be, so thanks for ur reply.

I am about to start working on an SDR (GNU Radio) along with Matlab as well as STK. I am primarily concentrating on drones and have to conduct many tests.

I recently upgraded my computer and got the latest STK. Here's a video of me having some fun. My version doesn't have radars so I'm just using a generic sensor with appropriately selected parameters (range 425 km, 75 deg half angle horizontal, 6 deg half angle vertical). The total mission is 2260 km, which as far as I can tell is around the max range of the Saab 2000 aircraft. The total time is almost exactly 2 hours (accounting for Saab 2000's cruise speed and takeoff/landing from Minhas).

Next, I'm thinking I should do a more realistic scenario where 6 Saab 2000s are in play over a period of 24h.

For some reason the rotating sensor of the ZDK-03 doesn't work while recording.

Shown on the 2D map are the areas "seen" by the radar on the surface:

Any RF Engineers here ?
