Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for beam formation by calculation. For each defective active module of rank ip, the missing samples of the microwave signal a(îp) are calculated by one or more non-adaptive interpolations using the samples coming from the active modules in nominal operating mode situated in the neighborhood of the defective active modules, the beam being formed as if the interpolated samples a(îp) were the real measurements. In particular, the invention is applicable to the compensation for the effects of failures of one or more active modules distributed over an antenna of a radar with electronic scanning. The method according to the invention can notably be implemented within an airborne weather radar.
