RESUMO
A classical radar antenna is basically composed of a primary source mounted at the focal point of a parabolic reflector. The illumination rule is established so that the desired beam-shape is attained, as precisely as possible. The physical motion of the set guarantees the coverage of the desired volume of exploitation. The actual text studies the design and development of a servomechanism capable of supporting and positioning a radar antenna, within well-defined parameters and restrictions. The aims of the dissertation are: determination and study of relevant factors for the specification of a control system design for the positioning of a servodriven radar antenna; presentation of a servo-driven positioning control system design proposal; proposal of a consistent theoretical structural model of the radar antenna set for the purpose of dynamic simulation and modal analysis of the structure and; presentation of the implementation of the proposed control system in a real Engineering design project: a servo-driven weather radar antenna. The control propose was successfully employed at the Engineering Model of the Doppler weather radar RMD700S-1M, developed by the trust Omnisys/Atech, installed and operant at Mogi das Cruzes/SP. The text presents, in a structured form, all relevant factor that must be taken into account in the development of such design. The conclusions drawn at the end of the dissertation are considerations regarding the design, which point out faults and weak points of the development.
