Abstract

In the paper we briefly describe conceptual design of Ukrainian reusable single-stage rocket demonstrator. The main objective consists in design, development and trials of a series of ‘Grasshopper’ demonstrators equipped with both the jet propulsion engine set and microwave/optical vision and measurement systems for the performing and control of its soft landing at the starting point. The greatest advantages of our design consist in availability of the results of previous developments of rocket engines and guiding systems for ‘Yuzhmash’ space ships, as well as advanced technique for real-time microwave 3D imaging using random/noise signals and MIMO1 radar operation mode with FPGA2-based signal processing.
