Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for a computer-implemented method for generating a display of radar returns. A geometry data structure is accessed that identifies characteristics of a region of interest including dimensions and movement of one or more objects in the region of interest. A pulse of a plurality of rays is transmitted from an antenna position into the region of interest and the velocities of returns of the rays are captured at a receiver position after the rays have interacted with the one or more objects. Each ray return is assigned into one of a plurality of bins based on the velocity of that ray. A Fourier transform is performed using the binned data to obtain a system response at discrete time intervals. The system response at the discrete time intervals is transformed into Doppler velocity data, and the Doppler velocity data is stored and displayed on a graphical user interface.
