ABSTRACT:
A complete frame of radar data is stored in radar real time addressed in accordance with antenna azimuth. The PPI rotating display scan is generated by deflecting the beam along the azimuth sweeps thereof under control of X-rate and Y-rate signals provided for each sweep. The X-rate and Y-rate signals are applied sequentially to X and Y binary rate multipliers which generate clock signals at a frequency proportional to the rate signals. The clock signals are applied to X and Y position counters respectively for generating the X and Y deflection signals via digital-to-analog converters. Sequential application of the X and Y rate signals to the X and Y rate multipliers generates the rotating scan. The radar data stored in memory is accessed in accordance with the azimuth address in synchronism with the generation of the azimuth display sweeps. The stored data provides the video signal for the display tube so as to generate the radar display. The rotating scan is generated in non-real radar time at a rapid rate. X-rate and Y-rate signals are also applied to the binary rate multipliers for generating concatenated straight line strokes to display synthetic symbology. .DELTA.X and .DELTA.Y signals are utilized to control the lengths of the strokes.
