  • Abstract
    The theoretical basis for a calibration scheme for phasedarray antennas is presented. A modified beamforming matrix is produced that will correct for the effects of multipath propagation. An extension of this is that, since it is not necessary to know the exact disposition of the array elements, the same scheme can be used to derive beamformers for conformal arrays.
