Radar calibration using direct measurement equipment and oblique photometry
Abstract
A radar calibration apparatus for the metric measurement of ground position; by airborne photogrammetry using real time high precision imagery, the transformation of those measurements from camera coordinates to antenna coordinates, the conversion of transformed coordinates to direction cosines of a measured ground position, comparison to radar derived direction, and the calculation and automatic correction of bias errors in direction; of the radar measurement.
