  • Patent number: 8654007
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the general field of radar tracking applied to multi-static radar systems. It consists of a method for coherently merging the individual tracks generated from the various bistatic bases that make up the system so as to generate and maintain global tracks so that an object detected by a single bistatic base is represented by the corresponding track and an object detected by a number of bistatic bases and giving rise to the creation of a number of individual tracks is represented only by a single global track.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20100156700
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to methods for managing resources in radar time, that is to say methods making it possible to manage in an optimal manner the scheduling of the boresightings performed. The method according to the invention firstly consists in supplying a table containing candidate boresightings. These candidate boresightings are those corresponding to the boresighting requests to be taken into account by the radar. Each boresighting is associated with a set of candidate frequencies, chosen from among the set of authorized frequencies, each set being defined specifically for each candidate boresighting. The candidate frequencies are determined so as to guarantee a diversity of the frequencies which are emitted by the radar, all boresightings taken together. The management of the boresighting requests takes into account in a dynamic manner the variations in the rotation speed of the antenna.
