Abstract :
To check the capabilities of a dasiashared aperturepsila, at FGAN the PALES experimental system is built up. Especially array signal processing with a multibeam system is investigated. In this paper the basics of signal detection by square law detectors are discussed. The proposed signal detection method is based on a time frequency representation. Besides signal detection also the PRF of the received signals is estimated. Experimental results validate the theoretical investigations.
