RADAR Imaging Transformation for Heads Up Display Utility
Abstract
The following report discusses the display and sensor requirements for a heads up display (HUD) capable of presenting a 3-Dimensional (3-D) scene to a pilot during instrument landing that provides data indicative of barriers and obscurations in the flight path and intended landing area. The necessary equations for relating common electro-optic sensor parameters to the equivalent RADAR parameterization are provided such that a cross-sensor analysis can be performed to determine the appropriate sensor data transformations for display. Formulations of the appropriate data transformations are made such that RADAR data can de displayed appropriately such that a human looking through a HUD can easily interpret the RADAR data to provide a 3-D view of the intended landing area.
