The invention relates to a real-time calibration
system and method of
millimeter wave cloud-detection
radar. The real-time calibration method includes the steps that a
synchronous control signal is generated, a calibration testing
signal of a
receiver is generated, calibration is performed on gains of
receiver channels, a target detection driving
signal is generated in the same cycle and transmitted to space, meanwhile, a transmitting power monitoring signal is generated, and transmitting power of a
transmitter is calibrated; target detection echo signals are received; the calibration testing signal of the
receiver, the transmitting power monitoring signal and the target echo signals are each processed, and therefore corresponding power spectrum data are obtained; the power spectrum data are processed, so that calibration data are obtained. In the actual detection process of the
millimeter wave cloud-detection
radar, the real-time calibration signal is added, and the power of the
transmitter and the gains of the receiver receiving channels are measured and calibrated on line, so that the status parameters of a
radar system are obtained in real time; the target
echo intensity is calibrated in real time, in this way, the accuracy of measuring the detection data in a quantified mode is guaranteed, and real and reliable observational data are provided for meteorological observation.
