Abstract: The invention relates to a data processing method for a multistatic radar system comprising a plurality of transmitters and receivers, each receiver being associated with one or more transmitters so as to form one or more bistatic bases. According to the invention, the method involves producing and sustaining multi-receiver Cartesian tracks from bistatic blips produced by the various receivers, and comprises: a first step in which mono-receiver Cartesian tracks are produced and sustained, each mono-receiver track consisting of blips formed by a given receiver; and a second step in which multi-receiver Cartesian tracks are produced and sustained, each multi-receiver track being constituted by merging the mono-receiver tracks together and with bistatic blips which have not been associated with a mono-receiver track. The produced tracks are transmitted together with the attributes thereof to processing means operating upstream from the method.

Abstract: The invention consists of a method that makes it possible to produce an association of bistatic blips, formed by the different bistatic bases of a multistatic radar system comprising a plurality of transmitters and receivers remote from one another, this association making it possible to transmit to the tracking means only bistatic blips that probably correspond to one and the same target so as to facilitate the work of the tracking means. The association of blips that is produced takes into account the parameters defining, in three dimensions, the bistatic measurements (distance and speed), as well as the azimuth measurement, relating to the corresponding target.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for merging detection information produced by various sensors of a detection system formed by a passive radar system including various bistatic bases and by an external sensor. The method includes two processing phases. During the first phase, for each bistatic base of the passive radar bistatic plots produced by that bistatic base are first merged with bistatic plots produced on the basis of plots transmitted by the external sensor and projected into the bistatic base concerned. Then, by associating all the bistatic bases, bistatic tracking is applied to the merged bistatic plots and unmerged bistatic plots coming from the external sensor. During the second phase a cartesian tracking is generated on the basis of bistatic plots that contributed to forming the bistatic tracks.

Abstract: The field of the invention is that of devices for detecting non-metallic objects concealed on human subjects. These devices are more particularly dedicated to the surveillance and protection of reserved access areas, such as airport areas. The device according to the invention comprises a portable detector comprising a transmitter and a receiver of microwave frequency signals disposed in an enclosure of chaotic geometry including a plurality of measurement holes. The microwave frequency signal measured by this detector depends on the nature of the objects disposed under the holes. A processing device linked to this detector is used to correlate the measured signals with prerecorded signals. When the correlation exceeds a certain threshold corresponding to the presence of suspect objects, an alarm is generated.
