Abstract:
An apparatus for use in a radar system for transforming data into planar grid for display, said apparatus comprising:a plurality of sensors for collecting data; a frame generator which receives data collected by the sensors and transforms the data into individual data frames for further processing; a database which receives the data frames from said frame generator; an input device for receiving requests from a user for a planar grid of interest; a CPU which, in response to instructions received from the input device, (i) requests data frames of interest from said database for display, (ii) transforms the data frames of interest to a common coordinate system, (iii) filters the data frames of interest for relevance to the planar grid of interest, and (iv) marks data frames identified as relevant; and a display for presenting the planar grid of interest based on the data frames marked as relevant.
