Claim 8:
9. The system of claim 2, wherein the time window includes a start and an end; and
wherein the determining the plurality of updated RF PRFs by joining any two adjacent segments of the plurality of segments with the bridging PRF acceleration that is lower than or equal to the limit of PRF acceleration includes:
identifying, from the start to the end of the time window, one or more descending segments from the plurality of segments based on the segment PRFs of the plurality of segments, wherein for each of the one or more descending segments, the segment PRF of the descending segment is less than the segment PRF of the segment prior to the descending segment;
processing the one or more descending segments based on the one or more segment PRFs of the one or more descending segments and the limit of PRF acceleration;
identifying, from the end to the start of the time window, one or more ascending segments from the plurality of segments based on the segment PRFs of the plurality of segments and the one or more processed descending segments, wherein for each of the one or more ascending segments, the segment PRF of the ascending segment is less than the segment PRF of the segment immediately following the ascending segment;
processing the one or more ascending segments based on the one or more segment PRFs of the one or more ascending segments and the limit of PRF acceleration;
determining a plurality of envelopes based on the one or more processed descending segments and the one or more processed ascending segments; and
determining the plurality of updated RF PRFs by joining any two adjacent envelopes of the plurality of envelopes with the bridging PRF acceleration that is lower than or equal to the limit of PRF acceleration.
