Modular Design for Radar Comparative Analysis. Volume I.

Abstract

*Side looking radar, *Computers, *Image processing, Modular construction, Data processing equipment, Radar images, On line systems, CorrelatorsThe development of a special purpose computing unit called the Flexible Processor designed for use in side-looking radar image processing systems is described in this two-volume report. Recent hardware developments have demonstrated on-line digital change detection, using special purpose computing logic sections which achieve an image processing speed capability in excess of one-hundred times that of large general purpose computers. This early equipment is reviewed and compared with a modular design concept based on the use of several Flexible Processors, which work together to implement the image processing algorithms.
