The Multi-Minicomputer Processor

Abstract

The digital snapshot moving target indication (MTI) technique was developed for the GEODSS project in FY-75. GEODSS is a Ground-based Electro- Optical Deep Space Surveillance System. This document describes the computer hardware used as a vehicle on which suitable real-time MTI implementation could be tested. The computer hardware consists of ten interconnected Data General Corporation 800 series computers and their associated peripherals. This multi- minicomputer processor (MMCP) constitutes sufficient computing power to achieve an operational real-time MTI processor.
