摘要: The present invention provides an apparatus, method, and computer-executable prog :ram for detecting antenna failures in directional antennas. In particular, the compares a bearing calculated from received positional data concerning target to of determined using antenna. If differ by greater than predetermined amount, it is that there failure. this way, information compared against piece known order determine if functioning properly.
