Abstract

RF burst signals are radiated via a first linear array to provide a first fan beam and return echo signals are received by a second linear array generally orthogonal to said first linear array and having a fan beam pattern orthogonal to said first fan beam. The system includes means coupled to said second linear array for changing the relative phase of the signals from the second linear array between echo returns to scan the second fan beam pattern.
