Is the assumption of a special system of reference consistent with Special Relativity? Definitely yes, special approaches show it!

We compare the results obtained by interpreting some fundamental relativistic experiments from the point of view of two alternative theories: Einstein's special relativity theory and the Lorentz-Poincare theory admitting the existence of a special reference frame relative to which we can measure absolute velocities. The experiments that we consider here are the time dilation, the radar echo, the Doppler Effect and the radar detection. The most important result is that both theories lead to the Lorentz-Einstein transformations for the space-time coordinates of the same event. This conclusion enables us to assert that the anisotropy in the light propagation fades away in the case of these particular experiments
