6521 20240306075430.0 SCART-2023-0164 Mouhaou, Déborah Radio meteor echoes observation with SPADE 2024 The Small Phased-Array DEmonstrator (SPADE) hardware, installed at the Humain Radio-Astronomy Station, has undergone independent antenna tests, obtaining successful radio meteor echo detections. Although the full phased-array operation remains pending commissioning, a preliminary configuration is proposed. By combining all antenna element signals without phase manipulation, a zenith-oriented beam can be achieved. This configuration proves suitable for detecting radio meteor echoes from the BRAMS transmitter in Dourbes via the forward-scatter principle. The SPADE system's gradual enhancement will allow the observation of radio meteor echoes with increased precision and sensitivity.
