The possibilities of measuring Extremely High Energy Cosmic Rays (EHECR) by radio detection of electromagnetic pulses radiated during the development of extensive air showers in the atmosphere are investigated. We present the demonstrative CODALEMA experiment, set up at Nancay Radio-Observatory (France). The radio-decametric array has been adapted to measure radio transients in time coincidence between antennas.
