Abstract
Estimating an antenna pointing error includes receiving a signal sent from a reference located within a region. A polarization ratio is evaluated over the region. A minimum polarization ratio variance for the polarization ratio is established. A location corresponding to the minimum polarization ratio variance is identified. An antenna pointing error is estimated from the identified location.
