    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and uniquely displaying ground features (terrain/obstacles) that are shadowed from an aircrafts radar system. An example system includes one or more aircraft information, sources, a database that stores three-dimensional terrain/obstacle data, a display device, and a processor in data communication with the one or more aircraft information sources and the database. The processor receives aircraft position, heading and altitude information from the one or more aircraft information sources. The processor projects a vector in a three-dimensional digital space onto the three-dimensional terrain/obstacle data stored in the database based on the received aircraft position, heading and altitude information to determine if the projected vector intersects more than one terrain feature. If the feature is intersected by the vector and the feature is further away from the aircraft than another feature that is also intersected by the vector, it is uniquely displayed on the display device.

    Abstract: A dual analog-to-digital (A/D) converter circuit having two separate channels coupled to receive a single analog input signal, each of the two channels includes a means for converting an analog input signal to a digital signal at respective sample times that are adjustable to be substantially simultaneous; a means for adjusting the gain of the two channels to differ by a predetermined factor; a means for detecting a channel overflow condition in one of the two channels having a higher gain; and a means for merging the two channels into a continuous output stream.

    Abstract: Radar data vectors of a desired number of pixels in length are scan converted, at a desired angular rate. A complete 360 degree radar data scan is maintained in memory. A raster image of a desired number of pixels in size and of arbitrary position and angular orientation with respect to the radar scan in memory is outputted. The resolution of the raster output image is varied to adjust its update rate. A high resolution, motion stabilizing radar display is provided and a multiresolution capability is available to eliminate image artifacts attributed to raster image update rate.
