Abstract
A system for discriminating between signals received on the mainbeam of an antenna system and signals received on the sidelobe of the antenna system. The system utilizes a main antenna and multiple auxiliary antennas. The signals received on the main antenna are coincident on one or more of the auxiliary antennas. The auxillary antenna signals are multiplexed separated for single channel processing. The main antenna signal is compared with each of the multiplexed auxiliary antenna signals. The result of these comparisons are used to determine whether the signal received on the main antenna was received on a mainbeam or a sidelobe.
