FIELD: radar equipment.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of radar technology, namely to methods for determining the angular coordinates of measurements of an arbitrary number of point close targets. This result is achieved due to the fact that in the method of measuring the angular coordinates of a group of N close-lying targets under the conditions of active interference, the true and false signals reflected from the targets are received by means of a digital linear equidistant phased array antenna, which is a matrix consisting of 2N × 2N beams, only 4N2 rays, and representing an equidistant line of directivity diagrams, with identical total radiation patterns and phase centers, located at the same distance from each other, from the resulting sum signals, a row signal vector 2N and a column signal vector 2N are generated, then digital signal vector processing 
and 
for the formation of the vector of the measurement of goals by the elevation angle and the heading angle, along which the generalized angles of the targets are determined, the correlation matrix of measurement errors and the correlation matrix of vector noise, and using the Vandermonde matrix, determine the angular coordinates of closely spaced targets.
EFFECT: achieved technical result is an increase in the accuracy of determining (measuring) the angular coordinates of an arbitrary number N of closely located targets, possibly under conditions of active interference.
