Abstract
A method for initializing a sensor array comprises executing a statistical test on a set consisting of first measurements measured by the sensors of the array, the statistical test being able to detect in the first measurements at least one aberrant measurement caused by a presence of an object, called a disruptor, this disruptor modifying the measured physical quantity nonuniformly, wherein if the execution of the statistical test detects at least one aberrant measurement, then the method comprises signaling the presence of the disruptor, and if the execution of the statistical test does not detect at least one aberrant measurement, then the method comprises acquiring second measurements of the physical quantity, the second measurements being measured by the sensors.
