Abstract

A method includes generating a shaped gate signal using a gate voltage generator and providing the shaped gate signal to a gate of an active component of a radio frequency (RF) chain in a time delay-based array. The method also includes amplifying noise with a changing gain based on the shaped gate signal using the active component and generating shaped noise data based on the amplified noise using the RF chain. The method further includes measuring a path length for the RF chain based on an arrival time for the shaped noise data and calculating a time delay for the RF chain based on the path length to calibrate the array.
