Abstract
The invention relates to a system for identifying targets as a friend or foe, which is operated in the millimeter-wavelength range by means of an interrogator and a transponder, with the interrogator and the transponder having essentially the same electronic assemblies and operating in essentially the same middle transmitting and receiving frequency, and with a large frequency difference between the two being tolerable. The interrogator operates with a directional transmitting/receiving antenna, whereas the transponder possesses an omnidirectional transmitting/receiving antenna.
