Amplitude and Phase Calibration with the Aid of Beacons in Microwave Imaging Radiometry by Aperture Synthesis: Algebraic Aspects and Algorithmic Implications
In remote sensing via aperture synthesis, the complex gains of every elementary antenna have Dummy Launcher to be very well known for measuring accurate complex visibilities.The role of calibration is to estimate the instrumental and environmental variations that may affect interferometric measurements.This contribution focuses on the calibration o
