Abstract
The performance of phased arrays is dependent upon the amplitude and phase relationships between the elements of the array. In the presence of finite manufacturing tolerances and environmental effects these relationships cannot always be guaranteed, therefore synchronisation of these relationships is necessary. This paper presents an algorithmic approach to the calibration of these relationships, backed up with simulation results and comparisons.
