Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0817308A2] The invention relates to a method for the automatic selection of a beam among those set up by a multibeam antenna, in particular for radiomobile systems comprising an equipment for the reception of radio frequency signals provided with an array (10) of radiant and/or receiving elements, a beam former (5) connected downstream of the array and a device for the selection (9) of the best beam linked to the beam former (5). The selection of the best beam is carried out by the selection device (9) choosing the beam presenting the minimum value of an estimation of the decoding error probability of the received signals (Fig. 1). <IMAGE>
