Introduction

The Radar Data Playback feature enables the playback of a radar data recording. Each radar can be configured to playback a recording of data which was captured from a real radar. This works as if it was connected to a real radar.

​The main element that is missing is the radar health data which we collect in real time from the radar. ​In playback mode we simulate the health data.
