Abstract

The usable displayed area (UDA) in an airborne scanning sensor (ASS) depends on various factors, some of which are interdependent. We analyze the effects of these factors on the overall geometry of the UDA and usefulness of the image. First we assume a static target-sensor scenario and conclude that the shape of UDA is roughly trapezoidal. Then we consider the dynamics of the system and find out that the image can be divided into four regions where the central region offers the best quality image.
