Apparatus, method and computer program for processing a voice radio signal

A method for processing a voice radio signal, the method comprising:

• converting the voice radio signal into a text signal by means of a transcription unit;
• determining an object from which the voice radio signal originates by means of an object determination unit;
• determining position information of the object from which the voice radio signal originates by means of an object localization unit, wherein the object localization unit comprises at least one radio direction finder;
• and
• allocating the text signal to the object and providing the text signal allocated to the object by means of an output unit;
• wherein determining the object from which the voice radio signal originates comprises determining, for objects in an environment, a respective detection probability, and determining as the object from which the voice radio signal originates an object with the highest detection probability, or all objects with detection probabilities deviating from each other by not more than a predefined degree,
• wherein the respective detection probability defines a degree of correspondence of the position information, determined by means of the object localization unit, with an actual position of the respective object, determined by an AIS receiver, an ADS-B receiver and/or a radar unit.

A non-transitory digital storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform steps comprising:

• converting the voice radio signal into a text signal by means of a transcription unit;
• determining an object from which the voice radio signal originates by means of an object determination unit;
• determining position information of the object from which the voice radio signal originates by means of an object localization unit, wherein the object localization unit comprises at least one radio direction finder;
• and
• allocating the text signal to the object and providing the text signal allocated to the object by means of an output unit;
• wherein determining the object from which the voice radio signal originates comprises determining, for objects in an environment, a respective detection probability, and determining as the object from which the voice radio signal originates an object with a highest detection probability, or all objects with detection probabilities deviating from each other by not more than a predefined degree,
• wherein the respective detection probability defines a degree of correspondence of the position information, determined by means of the object localization unit, with an actual position of the respective object, determined by an AIS receiver, an ADS-B receiver and/or a radar unit.
