Utility
System and Method for Large-scale Radio Frequency Signal Collection and Processing
23 Mar 23
A large-scale radio frequency signal collection and processing system comprising a plurality of sensor systems mounted on a plurality of collection platforms that integrates a plurality of overlapping datasets with differing characteristics (e.g., different resolutions, different view angles, different heights, different time periods, unrelated types of data) to generate an enriched dataset or datasets using a variety of processing techniques (e.g., statistical analysis, signal processing, image processing) that allows for more comprehensive analysis of the radio frequency signal landscape than would be possible using any of the datasets individually, or in combination but without such integration.
