Abstract
A method to minimize the taper and cross-polarization errors caused by the offset, focus-fed reflector system in a compact range facility is presented. The method is based on the knowledge of the locations of the various scattering centers of the target under test. These locations can be obtained using image processing. Results are presented and discussed.<>
