Single Site Activation Logic and Display

Abstract

This report gives the concept of Single Site Activation relative to the one dimensional characteristic of wire/wire like objects was exploited to develop and implement an algorithm capable of providing pattern recognition for this class of object. A FORTRAN program was developed to demonstrate both detection logic and predictive logic which provides a recognition capability in less than a complete scan frame. The continuities requirements as a function of background noise were explored. A simulation system consisting of microprocessor based hardware was programmed and tested. The simulator provides the capability to generate a 50 element 70 scan scene with a variable background. A wire can be placed anywhere in the scene. The continuity criteria can be selected and the success of the pattern recognition algorithm demonstrated by the computer wire detection program.
