Apparatus for generating an output digital signal that approximates the value of a predetermined mathematical function lying in the X-Y plane at a point defined by an input digital signal. The mathematical function is approximated by a plurality of linear least-mean-square line segments each of which includes a central point, R, and a slope, S, with the desired point being defined by the equation F(X) approximates R+S.DELTA.X, where .DELTA.X is the X distance between the central point R and the desired point. R, S and .DELTA.X are precalculated and stored in PROM lookup tables and combined as stated in the above equation.

摘要:
The programmable interface gives a Block Floating Point processor the capability of performing various real-time signal algorithms on collected radar data in an external batch memory. Normally, Block Floating Point processors are not capable of accommodating data having varying exponent scales such as the data received from a batch memory in a radar system. The programmable interface solves the exponential normalization process using two data paths, an instruction processor, a microcode processor, a pre-shift control and an address generator. Data flow instructions are passed from the instruction processor to the microcode processor which executes the particular instruction's timing sequence. The first data path passes data from the batch memory to the array processor and contains a pre-shifter to normalize the batch memory-stored data. The second data path passes the processed data from the processor to the batch memory. The pre-shifter portion of the first data path is controlled by a pre-shifter control section in the invention, which generates a 4-bit code used to command the pre-shifter. Finally, an address generator creates a sequence of fetch and store addresses for data travelling between the batch memory and the array processor.

The processing unit includes at least one complex multiplier having hour multiplying circuits for multiplying the real and imaginary components of two complex vectors and combining the products to produce a complex output vector. Representing the input complex vectors by (A+jB) and (C+jD) the output complex vector becomes (AC-BD)+j(BC+AD). The combining circuits can be switched so that one of the input complex vectors is conjugated and the output complex vector becomes (AC+BD)+j(BC-AD). Thus, the present processing unit can provide the dot product of two complex vectors or the like.

A method and apparatus for suppressing carrier leakage components in a system for modulating a carrier with a selected signal wherein the carrier and a quadrature component of the carrier are weighted and summed with the modulated carrier to produce a component substantially equal and opposite in phase to the leakage component so that the summing substantially cancels or suppresses the leakage component.

The present invention involves the use of an adaptive power injection apparatus with an existing antenna having a radiation pattern characterized by a relatively narrow main beam and a plurality of low level sidelobes for the purpose of enhancing the performance of the main antenna in a jamming evironment. The said apparatus consists of an adaptive subarray constrained to maintain a null in the direction of the main beam of the existing antenna. More specifically, the said adaptive array is composed of several individual antennae having relatively wide-beam patterns and combined with the existing antenna through individual IF stages all identical to the IF stage of the existing antenna, individual phase shifters which provide phases necessary for maximum reception from the direction of the main beam of the existing antenna and individual adjustable weights. The weights, which may consist of voltage controlled amplifiers or equivalent devices are adjusted by means of individual signals derived from correlating each corresponding auxilliary antenna signal with the combined signal at the output of the summing network and subsequently subtracting each such signal from the overall average. Setting the weights originally to have a zero average value creates a null in the direction of the main beam. Consequently, subsequent weight adjustments by means of individual adjusting signals whose combined average is zero will maintain the null in the said direction. In an MTI application, the apparatus described would leave the main beam practically intact while serving, at the same time, to mimimize interferring sidelobe power. Thus avoiding undesirable amplitude modulation of the main beam signals that would otherwise arise without the presence of the constrained null.
