Abstract

A system for correcting the distortion of the plane waves passing through the radome covering an antenna on a missile airframe by nutating the airframe, in both pitch and yaw to quantify the error in accordance with the nutation, and then determining the radome boresight error, and then correcting it in accordance with the solution of certain algorithms.
