A method and system for compressing and color transforming image data are presented. Color transformation is a process whereby perceptional differences between the expressions of images in color devices are compensated. By transforming a compressed version of the image data, the amount of time in which it takes to perform color transformation can be reduced. Selection of compression techniques which maintain color characteristics of the image data in its compressed form permits the usage of color transformation techniques which already exist for the image data in its uncompressed form. The inventive techniques can be applied either prior to, or after, storage of the image data in an intermediate media or transmission from one device to another.

A method and system for automatic characterization of a color printer are described. A relatively few number of test samples are printed and measured to create an analytic model which characterizes a printer. This analytical model, in turn, is used to generate a multidimensional lookup table which can then be used at runtime to compensate image input and create desired visual characteristics in the printed image. A detector can be incorporated into the printer which measures at least one parameter of each printed sample so that characterization can be carried out internally to the printer in a manner which is transparent to the end user. In this way, changes in paper stock, inks, or environment can be custom compensated for each printing application.

A method is provided for use in a color computer graphics system whereby mapping constraints are relaxed and redefined so as to allow out-of-gamut colors to be mapped to in-gamut colors in a manner that is significantly more visually pleasing than in conventional methods. More particularly, the present invention provides a method of mapping source device colors to destination device colors in a computer graphics system having a color image source device and a color image destination device having non-coincident color gamuts such that a plurality of colors within a color gamut of the source device are out of gamut colors outside a color gamut of the destination device. A color name is associated with an out-of-gamut color, which is mapped to a first in-gamut color within the color gamut of the destination device. A color name is also assiciated with the first in-gamut color. If the color name associated with the out-of-gamut color and the color name associated with the first in-gamut color are different, the out-of-gamut color is remapped to a different in-gamut color within the color gamut of the destination device. The color name associated with the out-of-gamut color and the color name associated with the first in-gamut color are based on psychophysical experimentation, i.e., are indicative of what an average user is likely to call the color in question. The remapping may be single-step or iterative.

A digitally formed monopulse radar employing dynamic real-time calibrationuring operation. The invention has a transmitter section, timing circuit, RF section, IF section, in-phase and quadrature section and a digital signal processor. A portion of the transmit signal is diverted from the transmitter section for preparation of calibration factors during the calibration period between receive signals. The calibration factors prepared by the digital signal processor are applied by the processor to antenna received signals during the receive mode and to produce the corrected sum and delta pitch, and delta yaw signals and the tracking errors .epsilon..sub.y and .epsilon..sub.p.
