Abstract

A method of stabilizing the action of a phased array antenna system in which the amplitudes and phases of signals applied to, or produced by, elements of the antenna are monitored, differences are detected and suitable weighting factors are determined and applied to remove the differences between the amplitudes and phases of the said signals. Transmitting and receiving antenna systems are described.
