Method And An Apparatus For Determining A Deviation Between An Actual Direction Of A Launched Projectile And A Predetermined Direction
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of presenting measurement data of a launched projectile, the method comprising:
- providing an image representing a target area,indicating a position in the image, the indicated position corresponding to a corresponding position in the target area,receiving, using a radar, radiation transmitted by or reflected by the projectile while it is in flight anddetermining, from the received radiation, measurement data of the projectile in a coordinate system of the radar,determining a launch position of the projectile,transferring the measurement data from the coordinate system of the radar into a coordinate system with origo at the launch position and with a horizontal reference line going through the corresponding position in the target area,presenting the transferred measurement data to a user.

Abstract
In a method of determining a deviation of a path of a projectile from a predetermined path, the method uses an image of a target area in which the desired path or direction is pointed out. Subsequently, the real direction or real path is determined and the deviation is determined.
