G.5 ASR9 WSP with RVP900 Panel Architecture
The original ASR9 WSP solution was implemented with the Sigmet
RxNet7 Model ASR9/RIM-1 hardware and an RVP7 signal processor. The
original design used an embedded general purpose computer built by
Ampro Corporation that utilized an ISA bus to connect to the ASR9
specialized radar interface module (RIM) hardware. The hardware was
implemented in a set of programmable logic devices (PLDs) and 4 MB of
general purpose RAM. A block diagram of the original system is shown in
Figure 79.
