ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the processing of the multiple paths in an interrogator station which, in response to a salvo of interrogations, receives responses in the form of pulses. The station comprises at least two reception channels. The responses to each interrogation of one and the same salvo are classified by order of appearance. A value of dispersion of the energies is estimated, for each channel and each salvo, on the responses having the same classification. Since the first classified response is, by assumption, considered to have arrived by a direct path, the following responses will be eliminated, on the grounds that they have been received after passing through multiple paths, if their values of dispersion of energy on the two paths are not equivalent to those of the first response.
