Original Abstract Submitted
a radar system with on-system calibration includes capabilities for radar detection and correction for system impairments to improve detection performance. the radar system is equipped with pluralities of transmit antennas and pluralities of receive antennas. the radar system uses a series of calibration measurements of a known object to estimate the system impairments. a correction is then applied to the beamforming weights to mitigate the effect of these impairments on radar detection. the estimation and correction requires no external measurement equipment and can be computed on the radar system itself.
