ABSTRACT:
A method of processing in a two-channel monopulse receiver and processor is shown to include the steps of: (a) forming composite signals equal to [S+(p+jy)] and [S-(p+jy)] where S in a monopulse sum signal and p and y are, respectively, pitch and yaw error signals; (b) alternately passing the composite signals through a two-channel amplifier; and (c) separating the components in the resulting amplified composite signals for conventional monopulse processing and smoothing to eliminate the effects of any imbalance (in phase or amplitude) between the channels in the two-channel amplifier.
