Abstract
A system includes a controller that includes a processor and a memory. The processor executes computer-executable instructions stored in the memory to operate the controller. The instructions cause the controller to determine at least two beam patterns for separate transmit beams that operate within the field of regard to be scanned by a Radio Detection and Ranging (RADAR) beam generator. The instructions also cause the controller to generate beam pattern commands to the RADAR beam generator to generate the beam patterns. The beam pattern commands specify a pointing direction for each of the separate transmit beams that operate within each portion of the field of regard.
