Method for displaying a battle situation
First Claim
1. Method for displaying a battle situation under consideration and indication of the movement and position of friendly forces and with the position and motion behavior of targets being determined from angle and distance information derived at the observing or display station, comprising the steps of:
- providing an electronic display device for the display of said battle situation;
furnishing angle and distance information of targets which radiate wave energy by means of at least one passive bearing and distance measuring system;
from said angle and distance information, calculating the position, course and speed of every target per time interval and indicating the calculated position, course and speed on said display as respective motion vectors;
determining the path of the targets from given time intervals from said angle and distance information about the targets, and displaying the determined target paths on said display device;
associating specific markers with the targets as a result of determined changes in position of the targets and determined characteristics of signals received from the passive bearing and distance measuring systems, and displaying said markers at the associated target positions; and
calculating uncertain measurement regions for the position of each target from the measuring tolerances of the angle and distance information and displaying said uncertain measurement region around the displayed marker for the associated target.

Abstract
A method for displaying a battle situation under consideration and indication of the movement and position of friendly forces and with the position and motion behavior of targets being derived from angle and distance information, wherein: the display takes place on an electronic display device; one or a plurality of passive bearing systems and/or passive distance measuring systems are provided to furnish angle and distance information of targets which radiate wave energy; position, course and speed are calculated for every target per time interval and displayed as motion vectors; angle and distance information on the targets from given time intervals are used for the display of target paths; markers are associated with the targets resulting from their changes in position and/or the characteristics of signals received from the bearing and/or distance measuring systems and these markers are displayed at the associated target positions; and uncertain measurement regions are calculated from the measuring tolerances of the angle and distance information and displayed for each target.
