Quantifying Multi-Channel Receiver Calibration

Abstract

A novel test has been developed for measuring the maximum achievable calibration performance of a multi-channel receiving system. The test may also be used to determine the quality of a particular calibration scheme and to rank the relative performance of several calibration schemes. The test provides a quantitive measure of the dynamic range of the multi-channel receiver. We demonstrate the utility of the test by analysing two different eight channel receiver systems.
