Abstract

A method to compensate for variances in signal path delays for a plurality of radar return processing channels is described. The method comprises providing a signal in the signal path between an antenna and a corresponding receiver of each radar return processing channel, receiving a reflection of the provided signal from each antenna at the corresponding receiver, measuring phase variances between the reflected signals processed by each receiver, and adjusting compensation algorithms for each radar return processing channel based on the measured phase variances.
