Abstract. In this paper the
influence of the placement of calibration antennas of correlation and phase
direction finder with paraboloid receiving antennas on deficiency of precision
and intermediate scales of directionfinder is investigated. Possible way of placement
of calibration antennas is proposed. It brings to decreasing of the deficiency
of scales, and as a result to better disclosure of the variability of phase
measurements.
Key words: direction finder, phase
measurements, monitoring of spacecraft coordinates.
