A METHOD OF EVALUATING THE ACCURACY OF PHASE CENTER MOTION PARAMETERS ESTIMATION

摘要

The problem of evaluating the accuracy of micronavigation system used for the estimation of antenna phase center motion parameters to maintain aperture synthesis on board an aircraft is considered. A technically simple tool for the reliable estimation of the positioning accuracy of the antenna phase center using the trajectory signal received from a monochromatic stationary emitter is proposed. The results of a flight experiment on board an unmanned aerial vehicle are presented.
