Amplitude and phase correction of the phased array antenna by REV algorithm

Abstract

The REV algorithm for correcting the initial amplitude and phase error of the phased array antenna based on Fourier analysis is introduced, and its engineering realization method is given. In the given method, the correction antenna is far away from the phased array antenna, which is different from traditional REV method, in order to reduce the interference of the correction antenna to the communication signals. Through the actual test, the correction and monitoring functions are proofed to be effective.
