Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a system for locating an object in a volume comprising:—a first matrix of scanning antennas positioned in a first plane;—first detection means arranged so as to detect a first signal received by the object in response to a first electromagnetic signal emitted by the first matrix towards the volume;—first means of two-dimensional locating that are arranged so as to determine the position of a projection of the object into the first plane as a function of the first signal received; in which the system comprises:—a second matrix of scanning antennas which is positioned in a second plane, the second plane not being parallel to the first plane, second detection means arranged so as to detect a second signal received by the object in the volume in response to a second electromagnetic signal emitted by the second matrix of antennas towards the volume;—second means of two-dimensional locating which are arranged so as to determine the position of a projection of the object in the second plane as a function of the second signal received;—means of three-dimensional locating arranged to locate the object in a reference frame formed by the first plane and the second plane, as a function of the position of the object in the first plane and in the second plane.
