Abstract

In the measurement of the phase difference (proportional to the elevation angle of a target) provided by the radar target signals that are received by each antenna of an antenna array, a comparison of the responses of the signal processing circuitry to the radar target signals and to two signals with an adjustable known phase difference, causes the known phase difference to change until the result of the comparison is a null. The known phase difference, at the time that the comparison provides a null, is equal to the phase difference provided by the radar target signals and is independent of phase errors introduced by the processing circuitry.
