1. A method for antenna calibration comprising:
calibrating at least one antenna for use in an antenna array on a platform, wherein calibrating the at least one antenna includes executing a calibration including (i) an actual antenna response voltage of the at least one antenna on a test fixture, (ii) a first predicted antenna response voltage of the at least one antenna on the test fixture, and (iii) a second predicted antenna response voltage of the at least one antenna on a modeled platform; and
wherein calibrating the at least one antenna occurs (a) prior to moving the platform with the at least one antenna installed thereon or (b) without moving the platform after the at least one antenna is installed on the platform.
