Abstract

The radio system () comprises a waveform generator () alternately generating an FMCW wave representing a linearly frequency-modulated continuous wave for radar imaging and a CW wave representing a wave kept at a given frequency for measuring a velocity vector, an amplification chain (), a set () of transmit antennas (), a set () of receive antennas (), a set () of receivers (-), and a signal processor () implementing processing operations on FMCW signals received from the one or more lateral antennas () of the set () of receive antennas () and spectrally analysing CW signals received from the one or more lateral antennas () and from the one or more ventral antennas () of the set () of receive antennas () so as to supply SAR images and components of the velocity vector of said airborne vehicle ().
