Accurate evaluation of the Antenna Phase Center (APC) position is a key issue in radar applications. In this work we propose an approach for the APC position measurement in anechoic chamber. The presented method allows overcoming some limitations of the classical algorithm known as Two Point Approach, and it has been tested on two X-band antennas: a standard horn antenna and the three-horn array antenna mounted onboard the TELAER airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar system.

Abstract
Accurate evaluation of the Antenna Phase Center (APC) position is a key issue in radar applications. In this work we propose an approach for the APC position measurement in anechoic chamber. The presented method allows overcoming some limitations of the classical algorithm known as Two Point Approach, and it has been tested on two X-band antennas: a standard horn antenna and the three-horn array antenna mounted onboard the TELAER airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar system.File in questo prodotto:
