Abstract
A SYSTEM FOR DETECTING AND VISUALIZING TARGETS BY AIRBORNE RADAR, comprising a plurality of N antennae with a narrow beam in elevation and wide in azimuth, regularly disposed on a rotary base coupled to an engine, the elevation orientations of said antennae being staggered according to a defined pattern, each antenna being associated to a radar device endowed with computer means furnishing information relating to distance, azimuth, elevation and speed of fixed and moving obstacles above and below the plane of said rotary base. Some antennae point towards a place above the horizon, the angles of view being progressively descending so as to cover a volume that extends above and below the plane of the horizon, and may reach the ground. Said volume results from the sum of the volumes of superimposed cones, each cone corresponding to an elevation angle. The system combines the images of the N conical volumes to provide the pilot or operator a three-dimensional image.
