<p>A radar system for forming a scanning receive beam from signals received by a phased array (4) having a plurality of sub arrays (6), comprises a plurality of phase units (8) each configured to receive a said signal from one or more sub arrays. Each phase unit (8) comprises a waveform generator (18) configured to generate an analogue waveform having a frequency corresponding to a time-varying phase shift. Each waveform generator (18) is arranged to digitally generate the analogue waveform, and output a comparison of the received signal with the waveform, incorporating the time-varying phase shift. The system further comprises a combining unit (10) configured to combine the outputs from the plurality of phase units (8) to form a scanning receive beam.</p> |
