Abstract
This paper proposes the use of the blind compensation method to calibrate the array even when the antenna array is working. For a linear array, the amplitudes of the RF channel transmission coefficient can be blindly compensated but not the phases. To calibrate the channel characteristic blindly, a nonlinear array or referent signal with known direction-of-arrival (DOA) must be used
