Abstract:
Method and system of calibrating antenna array communication are disclosed. A calibration process is used to obtain signatures by at least one antenna element of the antenna array under idealized operational conditions responsive to a calibration sequence transmitted by at least one other antenna element of the antenna array under, to obtain signatures by the at least one antenna element in an operational state of the array responsive to transmission of the calibration sequence by the at least one other antenna element, to compare the signatures obtained under the idealized conditions and in the operational state, and generate calibration data based thereon.

Claim (Index 26):
A communication system configured to communicate data streams by one or more beams via an antenna array, wherein said system is configured for self-calibrating communication paths thereof, the system comprising:\n a control unit configured and operable to stream a calibration sequence for transmission by one antenna element of said antenna array and obtain a signature responsively received in at least one other antenna element of the array, compare the obtained signature to one or more off-line signatures similarly obtained by the system during a calibration process, and generate calibration data based on said comparison; and a digital beamforming unit configured to use said calibration data in manipulations applied to said data streams in the digital domain for forming said one or more beams and correcting distortions caused by the communication paths of said system.
