In this paper, the design of advanced antenna subsystem control unit for didactic radar is presented. It consists of three modules: microwave switches drive unit, servo drive unit and communication controller. The first module controls microwave switches and enables multiplexing of the receiving RF channels. The second module provides control of three-axis platform on which the receiving antennas are mounted. Communication module is realized as an Ethernet Rx controller making whole design is programmable over LAN. The complete control unit is designed and tested in System Generator and Xilinx ISE design tool and implemented on FPGA. In both drive modules the H-bridges as fast and power driving components are used. The proposed design is experimental verified.
