VERTICAL ACTIVITY ESTIMATION USING 2D RADAR

Understanding airspace activity is essential for airspace control. Being able to<br />detect vertical activity in aircraft allows prediction of aircraft intent, thereby<br />allowing more accurate situation awareness and correspondingly more appropriate<br />airspace control respon...
