  • Patent number: 11686812
    Abstract: A method for confusing the electronic signature of a signal transmitted by a radar, includes the generation by the radar of at least one pulse, wherein the method comprises a step of modulation, in the pulse, of the polarization of the transmitted signal, according to two orthogonal or opposite polarizations, the modulation of the polarization being performed according to a predetermined modulation code.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11249166
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining an angle of arrival of a received radioelectric signal implemented by a receiving antenna system including either one rotating antenna having at least two receiving channels, or two rotating antennas with a same speed each having a receiving channel, and having different antenna diagrams. The method includes calculating and storing a series of ambiguous angle error measurement values obtained from receiving amplitude values of a radioelectric signal coming from an emitting source on said first and second receiving channels, calculating a convolution function on said angular range tween said series of ambiguous angle error measurement values and a series of theoretical angle error measurement values of said receiving channels previously calculated and stored, and determining an angle of arrival of said received radioelectric signal as a function of an estimate of a maximum of said calculated convolution function.
