METHOD OF ADJUSTMENT OF MOBILE RADAR BY ANGULAR COORDINATES Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: radiolocation. SUBSTANCE: in compliance with method measurements are taken with two day positions of the Sun having identical elevation and azimuth angle in system of coordinates coupled to radar carrier. Measurement moments t₁ and t₂ are selected equidistant from moment t₂ of culmination of the Sun. Total errors of measurement of coordinates of the Sun are determined for each i-th measurement as difference of measured values and calculated coordinates of geometrical center of the Sun at moment t₁. Displacement of radio center of the Sun relative to its geometrical center is found for each i-th measurement. Magnitudes of angular errors are determined by subtraction of displacement of radio center of the Sun from total error. EFFECT: enhanced authenticity of adjustment. 4 dwg
