Abstract
A radar includes an antennal structure, with means for transmitting an impulse signal in a band centered on F1 according to a repetition period centered on a recurrence period Tr1 and pulse width T1, with means for receiving signals by the antenna in frequency band ΔF, with a unit for processing the signals received on a set of N distance bins. The signals received are transmitted by another radar in a frequency band centered on F2 where F2−F1≦ΔF, according to a repetition period centered on a period Tr2 and pulse width T2. The signals transmitted by the two radars are asynchronous. The method comprises: slaving frequency F1 to frequency F2, by measuring the power received integrated over the N distance bins and over several recurrences, determination of period Tr2 and T2 and slaving the period centered on Tr1 to a period centered on Tr2 with Tr1=k*Tr2.
