The article is devoted to a detailed consideration of the architecture of the software and hardware model of angle measurement system in the automatic radio direction finder. The article reveals the functionality of antennas, transceiver units, signal processing units and angle determination. Special attention is paid to the interaction of software and hardware to ensure optimal system performance. The architecture of the software and hardware model of angle measurement system in the automatic radio direction finder is a key aspect in the development and effective functioning of the short-range radio engineering systems. This model defines the structure and interaction of the software and hardware used to accurately measure angles when obtaining radio bearing. The article presents an implementation for modeling the ADF receiver, which is part with analysis from the point of view of educational goals. The model covers: system functions, main processing steps and necessary control points. The simulated systems are combined with a personal computer to control various operating modes and perform the necessary calculations for the navigation process. The model can be extended to include new modules for other avionics navigation systems.Downloads
