DVR video recorder RIM782

for aircraft

The Radar Interface Module or RIM782 digitizes radar video and inputs radar plot messages. Target replies (including FRUIT and clutter) are received by the radar antenna. After the radar RF receivers, the signal is down-converted to intermediate frequency (IF) and sent to the signal processor for further processing and plot extraction. At the level of log-video, the signals can be connected to the RIM782. ACP/ARP generated by the antenna encoder, as well as a trigger signal, can be connected to the RIM782 in order to align the video signals with the appropriate timing. Once that the video is extracted, it is further processed by the radar head processor to make digital plot or track messages. The data recorder inside the RIM782 can record serial plot and track data, independent from the data format
