Abstract A calibration method for a high-resolution hybrid MIMO turntable radar imaging system is presented. A line of small metal balls is used in the calibration process to measure the position shift caused by undesired effects of the antennas. The unwanted effects in the near-field antenna response are analysed and significantly mitigated based on the referential features of the MIMO configuration.
