Abstract :
The accurate pointing of the antenna is essential to radar system. The antenna pointing control system is put forward to realize the accurate and realtime control. Several coordinates systems are defined to describe the accurate geometric model about the antenna and the target. The azimuth angle and elevation angle to control the antenna are calculated by coordinate conversion. This system is simple and economical. It is proved satisfied in the practice application.
