A New Method of Self-Calibration for Surface Wave Radar Antenna

Making full use of phase of separate channel and different echo information, array self-calibration of high-resolution was realized with the method of resolving equations for the nonlinear array of surface wave radar in this paper. The algorithm reduces computational quantity because which does not need to search optimal results, so it can be used for real-time tracking system. On the end of this paper, in spite of low SNR echoes and short data series for analyzing, experiments show the validity of this method and the applicability for practical projects.
