Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2764057A1] The invention concerns a method for detecting a projectile point or moment of impact and a projectile for implementing the method. In order to determine the point of impact, for example, the projectile is equipped with a device designed to receive GPS signals and re-transmit them to a remote receiver. The method consists in determining in the remote receiver: the position of the mobile periodically; the moment (td) when the signals transmitted by the mobile re-transmission device disappear; and from at least one position measurement and the moment measurement (td), the position of the impact by extrapolation.
