Abstract
An experimental demonstration of the capability of a self-survey technique to provide high quality beams by self-cohering of a nonrigid or flexing phased array. The experiment also verifies that the tolerance theory associated with the self-cohering technique gives a good indication of array beam quality as a function of the level of measurements errors.
