The present invention relates to a method for storing measurements of a given type made by a radar, each measurement having been made at a position in a given coordinate system. The method comprises a step of accessing a structured data storage space, each location of which is addressable by a pair of positive integers and each location of which is able to store at least one evolution profile of the measurements of the given type as a function of altitude. It also comprises a meshing step which associates a ground position with a pair of positive integers allowing a location to be addressed. The method also comprises a step of modifying the content of the location with the pair of integers as its address by storing there an evolution profile such that for each ground position sufficiently close to the position associated with the pair and for which a measurement has been made at a certain altitude, the evolution profile provides approximately the measurement made at this altitude.

Method for storing measurements made by a radar

A method for the detection of a target by a radar in the presence of noise, the detection being performed on M antenna rotations, comprises at least: a first step for the estimation of the Doppler frequency ({circumflex over (f)}) of the target; a detection step, the target being detected if an associated variable Z is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold S, the variable Z being defined according to the following relationship:
