An Example of how the Roll, Pitch and Heading of Aircraft Affect the Coverage Calculations

 
 

Radar heading for the path segment

heading_comp2

 

 The figure on the left is the coverage using the actual measured roll and  pitch shown in the figure below on the left, and using the actual measured heading given by the figure on the below right.  

   The figure on the right is the coverage if the roll and pitch are zero and the heading is a straight line.
