Abstract

The ability to do automatic boresighting of a large parabolic antenna without a monopulse feed or rotatable subreflector is desirable. A conical scan (CONSCAN) technique based on the movement of the main reflector under computer control has been developed. The functional features of the hardware and software as implemented at DSS 13 are described. Application to very precise antenna pointing is possible. y =D + Roos (ot — ¢) (1) A= Reos¢ B= Rsing
