“…where ρ h and ρ z are the best-fitting half-path-length error vectors at the horizon position and the zenith position, respectively. For convenience, the ''adjustment'' described in this paper refers to adjustment of the half-path-length errors, which has a simple relationship with the panel settings [15], [17].…”

“…2. This procedure is very effective and has been widely used in the design of antenna structure [15][16][17][18][19][20], such as many famous telescopes -IRAM 30 m, SRT 64 m, HUSIR 37 m, QTT 110 m etc.…”

“…These formulas are verified by the ray tracing method in Mathcad (Lamb & OVRO 2001). Based on these simple formulas, the peak gain of the Cassegrain antenna can be obtained with the subreflector position adjustment and the relationship between the surface accuracy and beam position of the Cassegrain antennas is presented in Zarghamee (1982); and optimal surface adjustment and upgrade of the Haystack antenna (Zarghamee et al 1995) have received useful guidance. Through the above-mentioned cases, it seems natural to use these simple formulas to determine the deformations of the subreflector surface and compensate.…”

“…Holography uses a smaller dish (that is assumed to be perfect) pointed at a satellite beacon (typically a geosynchronous satellite to avoid the need for tracking) as a reference signal. The antenna under test then raster scans across the source to sample the beam [21,22]. Correlations with the reference signal are used to recover the absolute phase errors, and inverse Fourier transforms are used to recover the aperture wavefront error, which feeds back to required surface adjustments to make corrections.…”
