Automotive radar antenna alignment system
Abstract:
Two receive antennas integrated with power detectors are used to align the thrust vector of a vehicle to the boresite of an automotive radar antenna mounted upon the vehicle. In the system, a signal is transmitted from the radar antenna to the Radar Test System (RTS) positioned as an amplitude only interferometer for testing the radar. Signals received by the RTS antennas are provided to amplitude detectors for generation of amplitude plots of a difference signal, or alternative signal, for display. The boresite angle of the radar antenna is then adjusted until the amplitude of the difference signal, or alternative signal, reaches a minimum to align the radar antenna boresite with the vehicle thrust vector. Additional pairs of receive antennas and detectors may be used to provide boresite alignment both in azimuth and elevation.
