A simple method of analyzing the various contributions to the electronic boresight shift in a precision monopulse radar system is discussed. the various antenna and signal parameters that contribute to the shift are expressed in terms of equivalent branch and channel asymmetries. the effects of various error sources upon the overall boresight shift can then be determined easily by adding these asymmetries. the error sources and their equivalent asymmetries are discussed and derived for a space-vehicle radar system that incorporates most of the possible errors in a monopulse system. Sample calculations of the contribution to electronic boresight shift by some of the error sources are made.
