Annotation: The calibration method of hybrid antenna with feed elements digital array is considered. Calibration is performed in the far-field region. As a result of calibration is determined the partial antenna feeds patterns. It is shown that the criterion of minimum mean square error of the random partial patterns can be generated patterns with low side-lobes and suppression interference. The results of the simulation are provided.
