RDA - Signal Processor

Upon reception of the digitized output from the receiver, the signal processor (also called the RVP 8; see photo) accomplishes three important functions:
- ground clutter suppression,
- calculation of base data, and
- range unfolding of Doppler velocity data.
Additionally, Archive Level I recording - if performed - occurs at the signal processor.
