Abstract: A method for creating a virtual reception channel in a radar system includes an antenna possessing two physical reception channels (1r, 2r) spaced apart by a distance d in a direction x, two emission channels (1e, 2e) spaced apart by the same distance d in the same direction x and processing means, the method comprising: dynamically selecting two different waveforms, the waveforms being orthogonal to each other; generating a radar pulse of given central wavelength in each emission channel, each of the emission channels emitting one of the two different waveforms; acquiring with the reception channels echoes due to pulses emitted by the emission channels and reflected by at least one target; compressing the pulses by matched filtering of the echoes acquired by each physical reception channel, this involving correlating them with each of the waveforms generated in the emission channel; and repeating steps a) to c) while randomly changing one of the values of each of the phase codes associated with the generated waveforms until the level of the sidelobes of all the compressed pulses has stabilized; and radar system for implementing such a method.

Abstract: The echoes being picked up in the distance-speed domain, the method being wherein it includes a step of producing a mask, in the distance-speed plane, overlying the zone of detection of the ground and/or sea clutter echoes picked up by the sidelobes, the zone being determinable by the antenna parameters of the radar, the waveform emitted by the radar and the environmental context of the radar, all the points of the distance-speed plane which are covered by the mask being assigned a characteristic which is specific to the mask; a step of filtering the received echoes, in which the echoes covered by the mask are rejected from the radar reception processing.
