Abstract :
In conical scan LFMCW radar, the precision of angle measurement is limited when traditional processing method is used. And in order to use this conical scan LFMCW signal in closed-loop tracking radar, one must improve the angle precision. According to analyzing the causes of angle measurement error, a method of improving the angle measurement precision is presented. Simulation results are given to verify the validity of this method.
