Effect of Pointing Errors on the Performance of Hybrid FSO/RF Networks
The performance of a free space optics (FSO) transmission suffers from the atmospheric turbulence and the attenuation in foggy environment. By employing relay nodes, the error rate and the coverage area of the FSO communication system can be ...

EFFECT OF ANTENNA POINTING ERRORS ON SAR IMAGING CONSIDERING THE CHANGE OF THE POINT TARGET LOCATION [PDF]
Towards spaceborne spotlight SAR, the antenna is regulated by the SAR system with specific regularity, so the shaking of the internal mechanism is inevitable. Moreover, external environment also has an effect on the stability of SAR platform.

Measuring Antenna Elevation Mechanism Pointing Errors with Multiencoder Information Sources
There are many factors that cause pointing errors in radio telescopes. As one of the motion positioning mechanisms of the radio telescope, the error caused by the elevation mechanism cannot be ignored. The source of error in the elevation mechanism comes

New Results for the Pointing Errors Model in Two Asymptotic Cases
Several precise and computationally efficient results for pointing errors models in two asymptotic cases are derived in this paper. The normalized mean-squared error (NMSE) performance metric is employed to quantify the accuracy of different models.
